Yeah white looks good but don't think it's enough too turn me. Black looks tough! Plus my pers plates are designed for black. White XR8 will look very clean though.

The white XR8 looks crisp, like it...would love to see something done with the bonnet, stripe and or decals, maybe something to break it up a little. Possibly something like the FG1 GT bonnet decal.

Was reading a media release with details as to which models get which suspension and transmission
The falcon gets g6 suspension and the falcon xr6 and ecoboost all get the ecoboost transmission

I'm not a fgx fan at all, it's just doesn't do it for me, but that white xr 8 is a real looker.

Trying to decide between white & kinetic.
My XR6 is white & my daily drive & with a paint correction,polish & a good sealer (not wax) it looks great all the time even a week after washing it. If the XR8 was going to be my daily driver then white for sure but because its going to be a weekender I am leaning towards kinetic. I think I still need to see both colours in person before I decide |

I'm not a real blue man personally but I reckon that blue will be impressive in the flesh. Bit like the BA blue forget the name, blueprint??..That color sparkled on a new BA.. |

Unfortunately, any FGX XR8 (or SV8/ISF/SSV/etc.) I bought would be the daily driver, would be left in supermarket carparks while the shopping is done fortnightly and would be parked 5 times a week at a university (where I work), surrounded by yahoo p-platers. My current BFII cops a bit of a flogging by circumstance and the environment :( I've learnt a coping mechanism, which is merely that life is too short to worry too much about your one and only car. Be a different story if it were my Sunday driver though! |

Really highlights opinion. I think it's an average angle just good to see a white one..My 2 favs gotta be the blue 8 on the track into a corner windows down and black 8 at bathurst low front shot.

I don't know if it is just the white or not, or even the fact some wires/parts are yet to be installed but the engine setup there looks so much neater than I have seen before in a Falcon.

God that white is making me feel all funny.
Who wants to have the first Bi-Xenon retrofit done? Wish they had of been able to squeeze HIDs in the budget. |

It looks bloody clean and smart on the XR8 pictures posted. Personally not a fan of all the hockey stick stripes from the FPV stables. I'd just get the rims blacked out and a dark as you dare tint and it will look mint. If I dealt drugs than I would get the interior whited out too haha. |
