A few months back, I was looking at buying an FGX XR8. My budget was around $50k and after seeing one in the metal, it just didn't do it for me, from some angles you can see how it's just an FG with a new face/rear-end.
I ended buying a 2011 GT instead... why you may ask ?
Mostly because it wears the GT badge, I find touchscreens in cars distracting and because it's a GT !
Some people don't see the full significance of this badge... not only were they smashing Holden's at Bathurst and the fastest sedans in the world for a while, the original 1967 XR GT was also Australia's 1st ever performance sedan !
All Falcon's will be remembered for the great cars they are but we all know which badge will be fondly remembered for it's heritage. 
By the way, I could care less what mine is worth in 20 years ! |
Nothing wrong with your decision to buy a GT. I will presume it was a 335 GT? If so its certainly at the top echelon of the ford/fpv collectibility list. I6T or supercharged V8 will be where all the interest is.
