FPFQ means Falling Price (of car) Falling Quality (of owner). AKA 16 year olds getting a GTO for their first car, and then wrecking it. Or a sport compact person who buys a GTO thinking they are cheap fast cars only to realize that parts for an Aussie built car are expensive, and a minor accident will total them.

Exactly. You couldn’t get a manual SS until 2015. The driver probably was using manual mode driving around town. They shift up and down super easy.

Good guess. The mag ride SS are much slower compared to a 14 SS on a road course. I think it was willow springs where they compared them.

The other real difference is the hoods are different on the 16-17. Plus the ugly cheap wheels.

After having it for a few years it is nice, and my other car is an 06 GTO with a T56, twin disc, and lightweight flywheel. It shifts smooth, and doesn’t really search for gears. I don’t use the paddles or manual shift mode with the shifter that often. It is more of a cruiser for me. One that handles much better than…

That may be my friends old Mach 1. She got it back in 2009, and it had super low miles with those mods. If it is the same one. It is almost the same price she bought it for.

I have a 2014 SS that’s how I know to spot the differences. ;)

I knew the original owner of the car. He had an awesome kittah! Sadly he wouldn’t sell the cat with the car. lol

G8 with a Commodore bumper cover. You put a Monaro bumper cover on a GTO. The VE/G8 cannot use the GTO/Monaro bumper.

No, the FPFQ hasn’t gotten them yet. In a few years sadly.... :(

It was an option at the dealer for all years. lol

FYI for those wondering. It is a 2014 silver ice metallic SS. The 2014 models are auto only. They way you can tell is the front bumper has fog lights which is only available for 2014-2015. The wheels are 2014-2015 as well. However, the rear bumper is the dead give away it is a 2014. Yes, the 2014 and 2015 have single…

Good! Now he can go serve his time in prison.

How is Mitsubishi even in business? Suzuki should have stayed and business and let Mitsubishi finally die.

Ford should have brought the Australian Falcon over here. And do one better than GM and brought their utes over. I would have loved to have a Super Pursuit.

This is awesome! I would love to have one!

Great article!

Apparently he doesn’t. Why didn’t Stef write this? She may have found more loopholes for more racecars to get road legal. :)

I never use first in my GTO. I always start off in second gear. It has 403 wtq and a twin disc clutch with C6 flyhweel. It isn’t hurting anything.
