    I did not think of that my father has a picture of that....sad thing is he took it on the telly at home

    That will be one cool taxi.
    F6 taxi service the quickest way home...I can even picture an add for it like the fpv add for it with the wind and the tress shifting and when it clears the f6 taxis at the dudes door. We could be onto somthing here

    Funny thing is wheels is now knocking the one well toteted car (f6 typhoon) and its had the suspension upgrade since last time they had it....such inconsitant journalisum makes me dread forking out any money at all for these publications...often their better off being errr "recycled" and subsuiquently flushed.

    Obviously it wasn't such a good upgrade then. And are they actually knocking it, or saying that it's not as good as newer opposition?

    Should be an awesome finale to that platform......even tho it won't set foot here in the States. Not sure I'm all that hyped about the branding on it though. Sorry, but when I think Boss 302, this inevitably comes to mind:

    Well after lookin into it further, I see it will officially be branded as the FPV GT Cobra. But for some reason there's alot of guys on various forums who have been calling it the future Boss 302.......which was really confusing me. Especially since the OP here did the same thing.

    If they were gonna go the Boss route, then Boss 331 would have been a better name.......and would be more accurate.

    yeah, it is a little wierd that it's been called the BOSS 302, with the 302 denoting the kw output, when usually that number is for displacement (litres or CI)

    Well thats all linked to its anniversary status, rather than trying to denote it as a performance model.

    330 would be even more accurate though. 5408/16.387064 = 330.01

    Considering the "307" badges plastered on most HSV models, as well as past similar badgework the local climate seems to respond better to the power figures being flaunted around rather than engine size.
