FGX-351 · 20-03-2011, 06:06 PM

Here Here!

**Mechan1k** · 20-03-2011, 06:08 PM

Nice ad ... shame I could only listen to it on PC speakers here.

NAFairlane · 20-03-2011, 06:09 PM

i think im going to add that sound to my playlist of music.

smciner1 · 20-03-2011, 06:28 PM

Top Ad!

TC200six · 20-03-2011, 06:33 PM

Just seen the ad a few times during the telecast and it sure sounds good for a modern V8.

dave351cid · 20-03-2011, 06:40 PM

they havent played it out here in the bush yet :(

Whitey-AMG · 20-03-2011, 07:07 PM

Great stuff......

Short and sweet and straight to the point.

FPV8U · 20-03-2011, 07:20 PM

Didn't get shown once where i live.

Franco Cozzo · 20-03-2011, 07:44 PM

Ditto, best FPV/Tickford ad ive seen

gtfpv · 20-03-2011, 08:20 PM

errrr !!! revving

. thats not going to convince me to part with 70k . another poor effort in my opinion. i hate the cars doing 60km/hr on the proving race loop too

Sunburst50 · 20-03-2011, 08:23 PM

Great add for the GT and good to see Moffat back promoting Ford/FPV. What colour is that? Red or orange?

Fev · 20-03-2011, 08:31 PM

Was a really good ad and its great to finally see some FPV advertising!! Hopefully this coming week we'll be taking a few more orders! hehe

They can't do anything more as per the advertising guidlines. Remember the ad with the BA XR8 ute on the Salt flat? That was banned because it apparently encouraged bad driving practices

phillyc · 20-03-2011, 09:18 PM

Well, according to advertisers and demographers alike, Newcastle is often the test bed and a fair representation of market conditions across Australia. During the telecast, and I watched all 9-10hrs of it this weekend, I didn't see one FPV advert.

I enjoyed the link though!

GHIA AU · 20-03-2011, 09:25 PM

gave me goose bumps when I saw

Bossxr8 · 20-03-2011, 09:34 PM

Its a real indication of what it actually sounds like, not just a sound file dubbed over the top to make it sound better than what it is.

I had a good listen to one a few days ago leaving PD and being given a bit of stick going up the exit ramp, it was vixen, and being a company car it very well may have been the same one from the ad. Sounds good for a stock exhaust.

TC200six · 20-03-2011, 09:35 PM

I though that was a pretty good advertisment by FPV. ...But it's still not good enough for some users here!

vztrt · 20-03-2011, 10:53 PM

Love the sound of the GT....mmmmm and its supercharged! Would have to make a few people go and check it out.

Huh ???

Did you hear what Moffat had to say. Most powerful FPV V8 ever offered......

Like most advertising these days...the message is subdued and subliminal....you either get it or you don't.

To me......it basically said....... This is the most powerful 4 door factory V8 ever offered in Australia. We would like to show you how this thing will do a 800m skid......pull of a 12 second 1/4 mile pass....overtake a roll on HSV from standstill......but we're not allowed..........so how about you listen to that sweet rumble for a couple of seconds whilst one of the greatest ever FORD Australian racing drivers TELLS you that this car will wipe the floor with almost any other car you care to compare it to...........

Sure it isn't blatantly obvious to every Jo Bloe out there......but then again........the car isn't aimed at every Jo Bloe. Most well versed FPV and HSV owners out there will understand the tongue in cheek commentary and enjoy the narrative from the MOFF and the exhaust in the ad.

If that car was doing 60kph you would find the vehicle on the roof as the top part of that ring actually needs a fair bit of speed.

**Luke Plaizier** · 21-03-2011, 09:23 PM

... no, it was the most power aussie V8 that Alan Moffat has ever driven.

So that's what it costs to get your son into a V8 Supercar seat eh?

gtfpv · 21-03-2011, 09:27 PM

ok i will agree that it's the best add theyv'e come up with over fingers walking over the horizon , and cg cars going through the desert.
i may be slow , but all i got from the add , was wanna here how a GT SOUNDS ? , A bit of interior features and cars specifications would've been nice and added to the sound as well .
if restrictions means cars arent allowed to be driven fast on a test loop, or stated about performance , then i dont think any add suits me .

BigAL_250 · 21-03-2011, 10:29 PM

Didn't see it once in Adelaide, where the bloody race was!

bmorris · 21-03-2011, 11:49 PM

Great to see a really good ad from FPV targetting their market
