Need a step ladder off that horse.

Yet again another example of how out of touch they really are, pity, because it's a great looking car. Normal people don't care about how much of a change there is or isn't. The sheet metal changes alone are enough for a new model number. FGX obviously just sounds like another FG and it completely discredits the cosmetic effort that has gone into the car.

Would love to know how the boffins actually finalised that name, honestly they could have chosen ANYTHING other than that and it would have been ok.

There is no more effort in making it FG X than FF, FZetc...actually it's a PIA.

But again...Fords got it covered and I am sure they spent good money to work this out...they are all over it. Disappointing is one word, the car deserves more....surprised the marketing guru's didn't come up with iFG...that's what the kids are into these days
