Well it has happened Prodrive have set up shop in Oz and funding the new arm of Ford Performance Vehicles. This will give HRT/TWR and the other Holden teams something to look out for. The Falcon needed something as the Commodore was white washing them and even in the new car sales the Holdens ended 2002 a mile in front. The SS Commodore Ute or Sedan is still every boys hot car.

I have to agree that the new Falcon looks hot and they are starting to move out of the showrooms. A few of the teams have already shown of they war paint for this year and a few have coloured eyes. The Commodore and Falcon sports models look mean as highway patrols I'll try and find a pic.

Hell, I'd slow it down to get a good long look. Have you seen it with havoline caltex (?) livery. Niiiiice.

That is one hot looking car. I'm more of a Holden person though, ever since I saw them on Top Gear and went to the HRT website.
