What do FPV call a 'moderate' sales disapointment, then compare the disapointment of the F6X
GT outsells F6 2:1.. and has done so consistently since the F6 was released. FPV were hoping the F6 would have sold better, especially as the model has matured, but it hasn't.
I see far more GT's around than F6's.
This may change as the cost of running a car becomes more of an issue, and of coarse as the "Now" generation get more access to borrowings....
I think the Australian market is slowly warming to turbo 6's.. but it will be a gradual change, and may very well be about to take a premature hit with the end of the I6... i guess it depends how good the V6 is..
Maybe the F6X would have sold better as a F8X? even if it didnt go as well?
