Ford Australia’s 40th anniversary GT

[Danny]

FPV, Ford’s performance arm in Australia have released the updated BF Falcon celebrating 40 years of the GT name in Australia. I find it rather disappointing that they have called it the GT 40th anniversary.

Usually when an anniversary model is released, the numbers are before the name, however, in this case, they’ve conveniently done it the other way around. Personally I think that it’s pretty poor form from Ford / FPV to try and capitalise on the GT 40 name in this sly way.

Here’s a few links.

I saw it at the motor show in Melbourne last week and I must say that it does look impressive. I agree though that it is a weak effort at grabbing some GT40 limelight...

Would like to have one though
