Ford US will cut the thing as much as they can, not just for the saving but to try and make the new (American) models seem even better when they arrive.

Sadly as much as we all hoped it would be the "go out with a bang" model, it will pretty much be enough of an update to make sure the government doesnt come knocking asking for its millions back. It will be an accountant driven, low cost possible update, whereas BA was "get the sales back after AU at all costs" project.

It's already been drip fed not to expect power increases etc, it will just be an economy increase by changing the tune etc slightly.
Although it would be nice if they went bugger it and gave the 6 a last hurrah with 200kw standard for the XT or whatever it will be known as (if there even is one, for all we know its XR6 and G6 upwards only). 200 stock has a better ring to it than 195... And even better if the turbo was given a bit more power in stock form to make it a bit closer to the XR8.

If only.

Maybe Spyman will return soon with good news....
