Did anyone notice something a little different about rear end??? Could be just the picture, but the thing thats different is a little bit T2 series ish....

Yeh i too have noticed the lack of a rounded metal piece in the rear end.

No Tailpipe :oo1:
That would explain the lack of chrome extensions in the accessory list...

Thats just one more thing we dont get to sell onto a new car :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead:

No badging etc either.

I seriously hope Ts and GTs have decent pipes hanging out.

If you look closely... you can see the little "cut-out" for the exhaust tip on the bottom right side of the rear bumper. Definately a spot for the exhaust on the falcons. The pictures taken are just the SHELL.

i think the badging has been removed, as the names haven't been released yet....

If the mean machines don't have pipes hanging out i'll be dissapointed that's one thing, the base falcons are exactly that, nothgin to get worked up over, if they don't have tail pipes or not, but the XR's yes. I can't believe how much i can't wait for the BLOODY xr pics!!!!

Since they didn't release pics of the XR i would think that their not going to test it in "real life situations" as the reason for releasing pictures was to stop crap pictures. could this mean the quad headlight treatment is copping the dick as the released pics are all that's going to be off in the front headlight design???i definately hope not

The car on the the Today program on TV this morning had Fairmont Ghia badges.

One of the pics i saw had a Exhaust system just secluded but no pipes out the bumper. No big deal for Forte,Futura or Ghia but Please Tickford!
