I personally hope it in NOT an XR8 as that'll do no good for the value of mine.
I hope it is a Ford FPV, just the first one off the line.

Ford have been working on producing the FPV cars on the factory production line - the first time a GT has been made on the Production Line since one of the X series Coupes.
Other news sites have reported that the first batch of GT's will be rolling down the assembly line at the Ford plant this week. For me, start with the GS and roll out an unstickered, Ford Badged Version (with XR8 badges in the glove box) and all will be well. And then from there steadily roll the Ford badge back into the product. Lukeyson

Those stripes look poorly photoshopped out...
 (not saying this is the same pic as the FPV teaser, but just to show the bonnet stripe shape...) |

To everyone, the special car will be the first all Ford GT off the production line since the 70's. The FPV range will be re-introduced with the same models as before, when it's all up and running smoothly then Ford will re-evaluate the range and possibly cut underperforming models or make changes to others, but for now it will continue as is. They have not had the time to make much, if anything in the way of changes. |
