As a few of you may know I am very tempted to getting back into a V8. I love my F6 but miss that sound. So have decided in the near future, wait and see what the FG Mk2 looks like, to get a GT.
Will be auto and leather, just need to decide a colour. |

That's the way. There's no resisting a V8.

FG S/C GT is the future
 The FG turbos are insane but that V8 sound coupled with the supercharger whine will have you forgetting about the F6 |

I know, my FG F6, with not much spent could leave many V8's to shame in the performance department, but after awhile, it is not how quick a car is, or how much power it has, it is that big grin on your face after you have driven it. That grin for me comes from driving a blue power worked V8!

It would be nice if the FG2 GT came with wider rubber on the back... I remember this guy found the solution for missing the V8 sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9XAC-BvUyo

Binks, only had a manual. The only three autos in the state were Courtney and Patterson, Valley Ford and Bayford. Courtney and Patterson won out on service and price and Valley Ford as good, but distance their downfall. Bayford initially were a disgrace on price and service and when I finally let them know this they came around on price, but not good enough.
John, I wont have time to wax it this week with the zymol, or get car bra for road trip, otherwise I would take it.
