Default Official: FPV announces 450-HP supercharged GT RSPEC

Filed under: Sedan, Performance, Ford, Australia


Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) is the Australian equivalent to Ford's SVT division here in North America. Its high-performance sedan, the GT, is based on the Ford Faclon saloon. FPV has unveiled the most hardcore version of the GT yet - the FPV GT RSPEC. The machine was developed by FPV with the intent of providing track-minded consumers a competition-ready performer.

Under the hood is a supercharged 5.0-liter V8, codenamed "Miami," that puts out 455 horsepower and announces its arrival with a bold "Boss" paint scheme. Power is routed through a ZF six-speed manual transmission, sending power to the road via Dunlop Sport Maxx tires. The GT RSPEC will feature a very limited run of 350 units.

In addition to the GT sedan is a new limited edition Ute that will feature the same fire-breathing supercharged V8 and exterior treatment. Even more rare than the GT, the FPV Pursuit Ute will be limited to only 75 units. Click below for the press release and to get all the nitty gritty specs.Continue reading FPV announces 450-HP supercharged GT RSPEC

Nice, even if it's a Ford.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.
