The Typhoon still does it for me especially with those 19" alloys. The pics l have seen of the blue one at the SMS are stunning. l would find it hard to go past the F6 now especially since it has its own identity.

I love my Holdens but I have to admit I would have a FPV in a heart beat if I had the money.
Theres something about them that just yells out "Style". Something the new Commodores dont have much of unfortunately. |

Those pictures are very very sweet, the GT-P is bloody awesome, I don't really like the black wheels on the F6 though and the badges on the front upper grill look funny to me atm. These things could look better in the flesh though.

I think the two badges on the grill is a bit much, maybe kill the ford one and keep the f6/gt
Still, bloody horny cars!

Bloody oath they look horn !!! Now i just have to convince the Girlfriends GrandFather !!!!.

The Lightning Strike GT-P looks incredible. I think the BF FPVs are too busy though - badges, decals, silver highlights around the 'driving lights' etc. And the bum, whilst dual exhausts are cool, there is something that just doesn't look right. But then again, I reserve full judgement until I see them in the flesh.

when i first saw the F6 at the motor show i thought yuck. but its growing on me heaps. in some pics it looks really good and in others not so.
the GT and GT-P look awesome. but the GT-P badge in the grill looks a bit silly because of its size. but the GT badge looks real good.

I love them, and that includes the Typhoon rims. The colour matches the front air dam and the side vents well. I would prefer it if the GT and GT-P rims looked a bit more different to each other. They all look a lot nicer than the BA. I always liked the BA FPVs but the BF looks a lot tougher. I doubt the Herald Sun will refer to the Typhoon as looking like an XR6 with bigger wheels anymore.

Does anyone have any photos of the back of the utes? I want to see if they made any changes to the back of them (besides badges and hard tray cover)

I'm going to be the black sheep and say that these cars look weird without the buldge i.e. the typhoon. I haven't seen the new phoon in real life but from that pic the the *** looks disproportionate to the head. The Blue GTP looks sensational though.

I don't know. In my opinion, they look, kinda, just a little bit too silly.

At the expense of sounding like the regular FPV basher, some variety in wheels would of been nice.

In that picture with the three models spread across the road, the cars look like they sit way too high. Maybe i'm just used to seeing my brothers lowered XRT, but I thought the FPV's were a bit lower then that from factory.
Anyway, apart from that, they all look fan-freakin-tastic(tm) |
