well i can see where the bonnet bulge came from.
this is only my opinion but i think they made the right decision by not putting it into production. it just doesnt look natural. |

I like it, far more exclusive than any Monaro! It's a Ford!

rofl, i really dont see that happening...i know your not serious tho...it would have been great if ford released that at a similar price to the monaro....although if it was similarly priced it wouldn't have anywhere near as much power as it has

You could get a hilliers coupe conversion for less than that couldnt you and it would be 1/5 the price and look 7x as good.
