Lol at mindless people who think that a P'plater cant have a tidy falcon as a car. Thats a fail right there, who gives a damn if the car is a standard falcon, im sure if he had the chance they would have a FPV in their driveway...but..

-Not everyone needs to compinsate and drive a V8 or a turbo
-That car is better then many other cars a p-plater can have
-Not everyone sees the point of having a a powerfull car when you can only go so fast
-Tidy sensible P-plate crusier FTW, its not like its a hyundai with spinning hubcaps and neon windscreen wipers.

The immaturity of some people....

It quite clearly has an F6 badge if you open your eyes.

Boss bonnet on 6 cylinder = fail
Headlights with dodgy Ebay DRL's = fail

And i'll bet its not a genuine F6 either, probably just a tarted up XR6.

Definately doesn't belong in the win thread.

Heaps awesome...

the point was, that it shouldn't be in this thread.

I thought he made that point quite clearly when he said:

This is the Epic WIN thread, not a thread to put up any old Falcon with different headlights, a front bar and a bonnet.
If you dont understand what is WORTHY of being posted in this thread - dont post in this thread.

I better not put a pic of my car on here then, as it is just a crappy xb falcon 500 coupe with different headlights, bonnet and a 550 HP donk. People were putting gt bonnets and grills on their XB 6's back in the good old days. It often led to people getting right into modifying cars and building some real pieces of art. After all who wants to drive a car that is the same as everyone else's.
