I reckon FJ has already heard it running....

Maybe it will be what I heard or maybe not.

Gav (FPV 521) mate...........Check your PM's.

What did you hear?
I havent ordered yet and will hold off until I know what FPV are up to.

Well maybe they are testing a 400kw Supercharged FPV V8.

:love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

Lets hope

FMM

Wait for the price tag before getting too excited mate....

mmmmmm supercharged drooooooooool want one mmmmmmmmmm

Can anyone tell me how much more FPV wanted for a 40th anniverasy GT over the standard version?

Only about $3000 mate....

A normal GT was about $72k and the GT40th and Cobra were only $75k.

If your interested in buying one I know where there's a manual Cobra and Auto GT40th for sale at the same yard mate, the guy selling it will give you a good deal too.

Both brand new, last time I looked one had under 1500km and the other was under 2500km

Check your PM's Gav.

I take it that is the other Gav, considering I have no pm's and the fact that you dont call me Gav

You are correct Gav..........FPV 521 is also a Gav, who, I might add went to school with yours truly.

That is a real worry......

I think this car makes even the BF Cobra look at bit old and expensive now.

NEW FPV MODEL CELEBRATES PERFORMANCE HERITAGE



Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) today celebrated its fifth year of production with the release of the FPV 5th Anniversary model at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney.

"In only five short years, FPV has grown to become an icon in Australian performance motoring," said FPV General Manager Rod Barrett.

"In recognition of this milestone we are launching a vehicle which will ensure this tradition continues."

With only 200 units available, the FPV 5th Anniversary will join an iconic stable of collector's vehicles, including the 40th Anniversary GT and the Cobra.

Featuring a new 19-inch multi-spoke Alloy wheel design in Alpine Silver, the FPV 5th Anniversary is also equipped with a premium 6-piston Brembo brake package.

Available in Lightning Strike or Silhouette with a unique 5th Anniversary striping package, the 5th Anniversary also features an original rear decal.

The traditional sports seats are finished in Nudo Leather as standard with a 5th Anniversary logo embossed into the front headrests.

Unique 5th Anniversary floor mats also feature along with an exclusive build badge number mounted on the centre console.

The FPV 5th Anniversary features all the luxuries expected from an FPV, including dual-zone temperature control air conditioning, a sports leather steering wheel with cruise control mounted switches, power front and rear windows, alloy pedal covers and a premium audio system with six-disc in-dash CD with iPod** integration.

The FPV 5th Anniversary offers over $9,600^ worth of additional features for a premium of only $5,300 over the Recommended Retail Price of an FPV GT sedan.

The Recommended Retail Price for the FPV 5th Anniversary is $71,890*

This pricing reflects $4,353^ of net customer value for the FPV 5th Anniversary Limited Edition.

* Recommended Retail Price {RRP} includes Goods and Services Tax {GST} and Luxury Car Tax {LCT} calculated at 33%, where applicable.

^ Based on RRP of extras fitted to an FPV GT sedan excluding dealer delivery and statutory charges

I know it's special, but there ain't too much special about this one I reckon. The GT40th and the Cobra are more special, than this special... IMO

Agree - nothing to make me want to rush out and buy one.

IMO its about time Ford/FPV realised adding different stripes/badges to a car fitted with factory options doesn't make it special. But I guess there will still be a bundle of people queing up to buy one.

I think it cheapens the brand when they bring out an anniversary model every 6 to 9 months..........Celebrate 10yrs not 5yrs please FPV.

Agree FJ - can understand the 40th and even the Cobra because it introduced the 302KW Boss but this 5th anniversary one

Bring on the GTHO

My Ford dealer didnt even order any, so whats that telling ya ??

I got some mail in the real post today and it was from Team Hutch Ford trying to sell Me a 5th anniversary car, came with a brochure and everything.

So are you going to trade the Cobra in on it?
