Some people have no idea.. : :


Obviously it wouldn't be an actual nizpro kit, but the concept of a special wow factor high boost f6 or supercharged GTP to make the BF11 something super desirable. This has positive rub off for all the thousands of people who have paid $60 to $80K for a BA/BF FPV in recent years. Rather than consign them to the dumpster as usual. This is not the USA and cars cost more than $30K and need to be around more than 3 years.

The new model is that, a new model and a whole gang of people are waiting to buy one because its new. It will no doubt be a better car in almost every way. That's evolution. So it's sales will take care of themselves. By making the old and new car desireable can only be of benefit to the Ford brand going forward.

And Cuey, as for people with no idea, FoMoCo, FPV their staff and dealers still need to eat in the 6+ months till orion arrives, a "Race Package" is what FPV have done, they just haven't gone far enough with it IMHO. And no I'm not one of them, just an observer.
