There's a workshop called HO motors that does weird bars and skirts. I think they're up to Phase 10 or 20 or something ridiculous. Maybe they could copy this and make a decent body kit for once.



this was their interpretation of what a BA/BF/FG "HO" would have looked like

In the text on the left it says a larger supercharger pulley in a bubble on the right it says smaller supercharger pulley. Motor has no idea. Render looks good though.

I'd have to say i'd probably trade my GT 335 for a last of Falcon FGX GT if they made one similar to that...

Very good effort by Motor magazine. Love the black roof and mean front end. How good does red look with black stripes?

Can someone remove the side stripe and replace it with a traditional side strip ala XY GT?

They did that with the last rendering for the FG GTHO and it looked OK
The rear end treatment with the diffuser and integrated exhaust ports looked great.

The Backlash from those who put down their hard earned for the last GT, Wouldn't bother me, I didn't buy a GT-F, and would love an FG-X GT like pictured.

Tehy won't do it.... the GT-F kids would spit chips, specially the ones trying to get $120k+ for them.
