Just read in todays paper that AAC is going to do another Falcon in form of a BA GT-P. They've already done a prototype XR8. The 300+ will get 19 inch Works wheels, fresh trim a hand built exhaust and a heavy duty SVO clutch to handle extra torque. The engine will showcase Sprintex Series 3 twin screw supercharger and should turn the Boss over to a modest 370kw with 600+nm.
They say the BA wouldnt be as macho as the AU version but more European and subtler. Targeting price will be well under 100k.
First car is expected around March.......Maybe MMS(my thought).
I agree on the comment that the BA will not be as macho as the AU (e.g. the T3). But it's a bloody comfy car and it sure does the job!!!! Twin screw supercharger...hmmm...not particulary a fan of s/c but damn that's gonna be a really awesome car to add to the Ford range. Bring it on!
Any rumours if that will come as AWD?

The twin screw option should make some great power on the Boss - in the US with the DOHC 4.6 they make incredible gains with similiar setups. It should be a torque monster!

Clicky clicky here for previous ride! I still miss her!
Thats what i thought at first Mr Sparkle but to cut a long story short AEC has split up into a few groups and AAC has bought out the Sprintex part and a former senior executive of AEC is now mangaging director of AAC which will produce the Falcon.
