I was speaking to my dealer today and apparently the 40th anniversary GT has been confirmed to be released for the MMS. I was told there would only be 200 released but no other details were available. Let's hope it's something special.

Chances are it will be loaded full of more gear to make it even heavier and slower
IMO they should strip it out give it a weight reduction. Track biased tyres and suspension. Increased power !!

I asked if it was anything more than just stripes and decals but they had no idea.

$100 its got the same power, the same driveline and the same performance (if not slower) than a normal BFGT

I'll believe it when I see it.
If it does become reality it needs to be special, not just a few badges, stripes, and 'fat GT' extra's. I for one can't see anything amazingly different to what is already in the FPV catalogue, the major surprise and delights will surely come with Orion - FPV won't spend a lot of money on a 4 year old model will they ? |

What about unique stitching on the seats and FPV logos on the brake pedal rubber!

There was something mentioned in an article about a revised Superoo logo.

New Serif badge font and triple stripe package, and if we're lucky we might even get a #40 painted on the doors.
Of course I hope there will actually be something worthy when it's finally revealed. |

Left field idea.
MMS is in Oct. Orion is due early 2008 so will be sorted by Oct. So........ Orion GT engine in BF chassis with all GT-P goodies and better suspension at $+15k i.e $+5k over GT-P. As I stated earlier......left field. New management might want to shake it all up. |

I reckon it will have stripes down the center of the car. Or they will all be a special gold colour with black stripes down the side like the original.

The V10 rumours are wrong.
The Cleveland is coming back, alloy block & 671. Oops, no that's what I'd like for my ute. Oh well, we will just have to wait and see. Ed
