Default Fpv f6-f

I realize it's too late for this but who would of liked to see an honorable tribute to the F6 from FPV ? I mean they done well paying tribute to the GT with the GT-F. And now the FGX Sprints are paying homage to the Sprint name plate! So really the F6 never got a true farewell.

F6 will go down as something very special from Ford and being an owner, it's nice that it remains largely unchanged apart from some minor series 2 items. Glad there's no tribute actually, nice to have one of the last. ( selfish yeh) It has its own character and is well loved by many. HSV,s Holdens of all types, are always, let's say "agitated" around well mine anyway, which is sorta nice ha ha

G'day...The F6 is a truly great bird..The F6 will be one of the icons from down under..and along with the XR6 Turbo..will be as sadly missed as any of the GT's and XR8's..The F6 was a kick **** car by any measure...and bang for the buck they'd embarrass many many much higher priced overseas (and local) beasties time after time after time..
My N/A FG XR6 .I love , also with the ZF , but she's a bit off the F6 ..Enjoy yours you lucky , lucky bugger..Sounds like yours in very worthy and respectful hands ...an Aussie icon for sure and certain..Cheers Rod..

The XR8 never got the send off it should have either. This year is 25 years since introduction.
1 more year and they could have done a last anniversary for the GT too, 50th anniversary. Or 25 years since the EB GT
