5th Anniversary Gt

[senna_T]

Guys, I need your honest opinions on the new "5th Anniversary FPV GT" - because frankly, I'm not excited...

It gets:

-Specific Stripe Package

-Premium 6 Piston Brakes

-New 19" Alloy Wheels

-Leather with specific 5th Ann. Logo

-Specific mats with 5th logo

-Specific Build No. (out of 200)

-Available in Silver or Black Only

The total Package costs $9500 over a normal GT, but for the 5th Anniversary it will only cost $5500.

Now this is supposed to be hush hush at the moment, but I really want to gauge what enthusiasts think about it.

Cheers,

Pat

ohh geez.. could have expected a little more out of them..

a let-down like the last 10 years worth of "special edition" fords....

a few stickers and embroidery and wallah its "special"

no thanks.

anyway, I honestly dont think it really matters WHAT they change, theres NEVER going to be another "GT"..... just xr8's with badges.

GT's are never going to come close to what they were in the old days.

Oh dear. What the f*ck is wrong with them?

That is grandpa material if I've ever seen it.

just another marketing ploy to sell more cars, obviously but I certainly would buy one with decals like that down the side of it. mags look kind of interesting not sure if I like em or not.

that's bull S H I T ! , it really annoys me that they do this.. yes limit the production to 200 but put somthing "really special" with the 5th Anniversary? Maybe 320kw?!? even a 5 kw difference would get buyers? maybe even make it look A LOT! different exterior wise so when someone buys it they know, hey this GT isn't just another GT! (no pun intead to GT owners I use to own one too) but you all get the idea..

Definitely needs more cowbell.

The wheels look alright I suppose but they should have been standard issue on all the FG FPV GTs by now... The 5th anniversary stripe just looks try-hard with the massive 5 on the side. I really don't think they've done enough (they don't even have R-Spec suspension this time around).

[Trough Lolly]

look at the Devil R and models like that... all a joke and I pity the poor fools who were silly enough to buy them.

for coin like that, one could own a REAL GT, maybe not an XY PH3... but plenty of other older models sure would make me feel more at home in a GT before that plastic label maker would.
