Default Re: $115,000 for a Falcon? FPV owners try to cash in...

I could see them just having the XR8 but having a limited/top of the line variant called the GT just as a final cash grab. Nobody said that there wouldn't be a GT without FPV - there never used to be FPV when the 'real' GTs were first getting around.

There's GT mustangs, so why not have a GT falcon again.

GT is just such an iconic badge - to Ford, forget FPV - that I could see them wanting to milk the last few bucks out of it.
BA and BF were badged as FORDS. They are the last "ford" badged GT product.
Makes no difference if Ford or FPV. The supercharged FG GT goes like stink. It is badged as FPV. Doesnt take anything away from the fact it is the best performing ford ever made in this country and may probably be the best performing ford product we are likely to see in a very long time.

FPV and Tickford are the reason we have these cars.
