holy moly... its damn nice.. but you think they would have atleast given it a vacuum.

I can't see myself paying $89k for any car... even if it was a GT.. or a Phase3 for that matter. They're nice, but so is my bank balance.

Well then I guess you shall stand corrected because Track red was code H in the XY range with 141 GT falcon's sold and 23 HO's, totalled=164 and it was also code T in the XW range. :

4th color down, there were a lot more colors in the XYGT range than you'd think.

Rear spoilers were only fitted to Phase 3's, i believe they were a dealer option on later XYGT's
But like most XYGT's now they seem to have front and rear spoilers as well as 15" globes which were never an option on XYGT's.

He hates people asking big $$$ for GT's because to him it makes them unafordable to the "battlers"....
Apparently you have to be a "battler" to be a real GT enthusiast and anyone who collects, restores, looks after or sells them for top $$ is an investor and capitalist pig!
