Is it possible that the Coyote engine can offer better economies of scale than the Boss and result in an equal or even cheaper price?

We can go round and round on this, the point is that those who have Phase 3s are all smiles, those that held out for a Phase 4 missed out, the people who got RPO83 or Special ZF Fairlanes got something special but not a GTHO. Last edited by jpd80; 07-08-2010 at 02:09 PM. |

According to Wheels Mag, September 2010 issue, it seems like the XR8 will live on......
Do we assume this is a Wheels story, or a controlled leak from Ford ? https://www.fordforums.com.au/photos/data/2937/wm.jpg[/IMG]

Dont think we can rely on Wheels magazine too much, there seems to be better and more accurate information from members here on the forum. I really hope it is right and the XR8 nameplate lives on N/A
