Old news I had this discussion with GP when he was around. Ford looked into it. But they sell these cars overseas to people in englund and the U.A.E.
So no one from australia gets one from what i understand. |

they must have pulled an all nighter thinking about what to call it.
plus the badges dont really suit the car. also why not call it an SS-R or something more holden?
