FactIn April 2007 FPV marked the GT nameplate's 40th birthday with an anniversary edition finished only in black with gold stripes.
The FPV BF GT, introduced in 2005, added four-piston front and single-piston rear Brembo calipers (six-piston front and four-piston rear on the GT-P); a black-with-gold-stripe '40th Anniversary' edition followed in April 2007. The 2008 GT 'Cobra' (also called Cobra R-Spec), white with blue stripes, used a 5.4-litre Boss 302 V8 making 302 kW (405 hp) and 398 lb-ft; 400 GT Cobras were built (plus 100 Cobra Utes on the Super Pursuit).

FPV's BA GT ran a Mustang heart: the Boss 290 V8 borrowed its DOHC 4-valve cylinder heads straight from the 2000 Mustang Cobra R, grafted into Ford Australia's own 5.4-litre block.
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.
