Well Guys,
I picked up my new BF MKII XR8 sedan last nite from the ford dealer and am over the moon. It was a shame to see the ute go but when you have 3 people in your family 2 seats just don't cut it. The vechile i got is a x demo only 3 months old with 2500 km's on the clock, it has the new body kit styling and the new 18" alloys. It also has the premium sound which sounds bloody fantastic in full swing with all 6 speakers and sub singing alound at ya. The car is Silhouette in colour and has the new 6 speed german gearbox fitted to it, the car goes like a rocket and am happy that i have acquired this vechile. Does or has anybody else have the new version if so i would like to hear your thoughts on the new look. This is a bit quieter than the ute but still has that sound when you give it some stick.  :

Thats it yours is identical to mine, i was thinking of getting the decals on the bonnet, when i picked mine up there was another one in the same colour with silver/light gray boss 260 plastered on the bonnet and it looked good.

I like the grey/silver look of those wheels...might see how much a set of 4 cost from Ford....that body kit ain't bad either, looks better than the BA XR one's.
If you get the bonnet stripes, go with white one's, it will contrast perfectly with that colour. Congrats on you new car and welcome to the BOSS club ;)
