Love it Brad.....I watched it when it first came out, but still enjoy it.

Big weekend at Ipswich this weekend, with kids sport ruling my life it will be the first one I have missed in 9 years.

Go Holden........:)

pffffffft 96 grand for a commodore that can't even tow my van??? why would you???

FORD MUSTANG is replacing the locally built FPV/GT/GS in 2016 built RH drive from the home of cars the good old USofA with a retail price of around 55 grand, I know which one I would prefer and money left over to buy a new tug for the van lol

sorry Holden_man but I left you a bait on another thread and you didn't bite then either :)

The boss has the last model clubsport with supercharger and exhaust. It is unbelievably quick spins wheels in just about all gears and TC has no affect.

$55k hey.......I am not so sure mate, let's wait and see, can't see them selling them cheaper than the current crop of FPV. Reckon there will be one as expensive as a GTS. But hey if you want to spend cash on a bucket of bolts from the US, that's ok too......:)
Me I'll grab me a HSV :)

Ps I missed the bait you set me elsewhere, I'll have to keep a closer eye, don't want to miss a chance to square up....:)

Why is Ford charging so much for them, they are not that expensive over there. Seems a large mark up. They should have had Mustangs here years ago, that is part of their problem, not supplying cars to meet customers needs.

$55k will be for the V6 version only NOT the V8 one. And being american I'm sure the quality control will be just fine.

Do like the look of them, but from all accounts they still handle like most american cars (not very well).

And I'm sure as we live in the nanny country they will tone them down for our safety. Might be time to move country with all the stupid laws they keep adding, not to mention the ridiculous prices we seem to pay for everything.
