I agree, I would not shed a tear if FPV was disbanded...I would only be annoyed because Ford cant seem to stabilize its performance channels.
The US Ford GT is branded as a Ford, not a SVT et al...IMO the GS should not exist as a FPV, it should be a Ford XR8 (with revised price) and FPV have the GT and F6..but I digress (only slightly).
That way more Miami's are moved and not to the determent of the GT or the FPV brand. It would be interesting to know if GS buyers are that tight on a budget or thought the GT wasn't worth the extra coin.
