Surely if someone got that photo they have more. Really interested in this one. Looks like it was parked up somewhere and getting lots of attention.

Looks like it may have been taken at the factory, note the reflections from the bonnet look like it's in a large warehouse and old mate standing nearby is wearing a hi vis. Just a guess.

Interesting also to see from the ETIS list that Integrated Vehicle Dynamics is in.

True. Looks like a factory pic.

So is that red the current FG colour?

Not sure where all the current crop of pics have been taken but I saw one today in QLD. I am 100% sure it was one though I didnt get a great look. The front was unmistakable had trade plates and the rear was defs the same as what has been posted. The car was travelling nort up Pine Ridge Road from Brisbane Rd (Gold Coast Hwy). White car. No chance to turn around and try to catch.

Seems likely G6 is the one given the flick, but G6ET to remain.

Hope not. But seems that new front bodywork that could almost belong on the front of a Lambo makes an intercooler damn hard to spot.

Keeping the turbos make sense since they probably want us buying a 2.3l Turbo Mustang one day.
