Happened to be at dealer launch of the FPV range on Friday night........ Seagull even missed out on free food!

So the first thing MOTIV8 noticed was on the engine bay of the XR8 ute, it was painted in gloss, but all others were matt.

You do sit a bit lower,(the steering wheel is a little too low for my mind) but Andrew (a club memeber who is in the next edition of Motor mag in the BF vs FG GT comparison) reckons the GT you sit real low and all you see is the bulge. For shorties like me, you'll be happy to know it is now easy to reach the gear knob without sitting on top of the wheel.............

Murphy's law - they didn't have GT/GT-P there.

Anyway, here's some pics.........
