The Typhoon only gets 18 inch rims to standard, where as the GTP's are 19's.

I guess value will be in the eye of the beholder and will get down to the small details. The webcast specifically mention Brembo front brakes on all models. It will be stuff like that. Looking real close you can just make out the new FPV seat logo.

From memory the GT-p has only gone up about 200 dollars so that’s a pretty good achievement in my book

Use Euro style slimline plates instead.

Okay so i've missed the web cast -where do I get to see these pictures and stuff apart from CSV_LS1's generously posted pictures.

FPV are still advertising FPV runouts on their web page... talk about poor timing promotion of the new model

FPVs website aint updated.

I'm gonna go play some golf and have a look this evening. Their digital wranglers aint the quickest out there. (that said, Goauto dont have jack all yet either).

It could be worse: At least we're not in the Red camp and have to stare at that amazingly awful HSV site. There should be a law against web designers THAT untalented using THAT much flash content.

The bar has a raised section in the middle to allow for a full sized plate. Only a few photos have shown it. No idea why but it is definitely there.

Maybe they have one version for photographs, and a production one (ie one with appropriate plate area).

yeah perhaps no idea. The rasied section makes it look better for mine. Go auto just out nothing in that either unless you are a Holden fan. Some BF stuff and drive impressions sometime in the coming days.

On the website front it makes one wonder why they even bothered with the countdown clock.

No pictures there because the hosting web site is 'secure' and probably doesn't like cross linking.

Save them to disk and post them as attachments
