Default FG Prototype at Grays Online

I'm not sure how this thing escaped the clutches of Ford Aus. It is a December 2007 FG G6E Turbo Prototype! It appears there is some issue with the compliance plate decal, as the computer chucked a wobbly when the car came down the line ready to receive it. It might have had a proper label attached on top and then later removed.

The paint in the door jam near the stickers appears to be redone very poorly with massive tape edges.

Just looking at the engine bay I can see several anomalies against production vehicles -

- Plastic intake muffler delete pipe with host joiner locater (pre-pro part)
- Difference in the crossover to airbox pipe
- Clamps on BOV aren't spring type
- Thermostat housing has relief pipe to header
- PCM looks thicker?

Very interesting stuff..
