FactFPV's turbo six had a rare-air inner circle: the 2007 "R Spec" Typhoon, a limited run of just 300 cars.
The FPV F6, launched in 2004 on the Ford Falcon BA Mk II sedan and utility (sold as the Typhoon and Tornado respectively until the FG series dropped those names), used the turbocharged 4.0-litre inline-six Barra 270T making 270 kW (362 hp) at 5,250 rpm and 406 lb-ft between 2,000-4,000 rpm, at first only with a 6-speed Tremec T-56 manual and a bonnet scoop, 18-inch wheels, PBR 325 mm 2-piston brakes (Brembo optional); the 2005 BF series added a ZF 6HP26 6-speed automatic and 19-inch wheels, and a 300-unit limited 'R Spec' Typhoon followed in 2007.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
