What's wrong with the pic...? They're pointing out a neat little detail on the car, how would you people like them to point it out...? It seems that every time a pic is released we have to trawl through three pages of complaining before getting to anything relevant...

Sorry guys all I got. Was a ecolpi ute so the rear is exactly like an FG. Didn't think of the interior lol. I did look inside but you'd be hard pressed to see what's changed from FG.

Looks like with FG g6e they drew insiration from the front air vents of a window air conditioner. Looks like they went outside and looked at the air con's condensor fin design for inspiration for the grille of that red car...

They should at least provide some interior shots cause I think the new XR leather seat trim looks fantastic.
Not that i've seen it but one look at the dashboard and it says 'FG, nothing new here' which is possibly the reason Ford aren't releasing any interior pics even if it's had a trim update.

I'm going to go hunting for these and get some proper pics for the forum with my DSLR.

Where have most of the sightings been? Only in the north and west of Melbourne?

The FH front looks quite flat, does this mean we've shed some length over all? It would be a positive!
