)

Enjoy

That F6 Typhoon is the only local Ford I'd consider buying, the rest of the range is boring IMO.

Nice to see that yellow/black GT40, seen a few pics of it out on Sunday morning runs in Adelaide with the Gallardo, 996TT etc etc.

Thanks mate.

Yeah I wouldnt buy anything other than a typhoon either.

Although that said, their V8's sound fantastic.....

Is that 996TT one with a full GT2 kit on it?

Its actually a Techart (German tuner) kit, looks awesome and from all accounts sounds just as good.

I was driving next to him last week on the way to work in the city. It looks just awesome man... I didnt have my digital cam either...

I wanted him to just give it a little so i could hear it but alas to no avail.

The wheels were huge and looked stunning. Can you organise a ride for me?

Thanks for the pics

I very like those FPV Falcons, Ford should import this car to North America like GM did with the Holden Monaro. That could made the Ford lineup here a little more sporty.

Thanks mate for the pix.

Im not a Ford man but these new falcons go and sound great. Come out stock with about 380-400hp(290kw) & 500-550nm, and with an aftermarket under bonnet blower make huge huge power.

Maybe you could buy one for yourself and ship it over??

Nice pics, thanks for sharing.

I really like the FPV Falcons, I cannot understand why they don't import them to the US, either.

Ford only have the Mercury Marauder as a 'sporty sedan' and, well, it's not at all sporty
