2008 Ford FPV GT - Nitro Blue - 31,255km Indicated - Boss 315 5.4L V8, 6-Speed Automatic - Modified
The FPV GT represented the pinnacle of Ford Performance Vehicles' naturally aspirated line, and in Nitro Blue with a Boss 315 under the bonnet this particular example is one of the most desirable colour and engine combinations the GT range produced. Now benefiting from a suite of enthusiast modifications and presented in excellent cosmetic condition, this is a proper Australian performance sedan for those who know what they're looking at.
Description
The FPV GT arrived in 2008 as the definitive naturally aspirated offering from Ford's performance division, with the Boss 315 delivering 315 horsepower through the six-speed automatic ZF transmission to the rear wheels. This example has been modified from factory specification, with the vendor advising upgrades including a performance camshaft, upgraded air intake (a K&N-style cone filter is clearly visible in the engine bay), extractors, performance exhaust system, engine tune, and lowered suspension with aftermarket components. The result is a car that out-performs the already-impressive factory specification.
Important odometer note: The odometer currently displays 31,255 kilometres. The vendor advises the instrument cluster was replaced when the vehicle had travelled approximately 86,000 kilometres. The total distance travelled by this vehicle is therefore higher than the displayed reading. Buyers should factor this into their assessment and bidding.
The Nitro Blue exterior is spectacular, with paint presenting in deep gloss across all panels. Body lines are straight, panel gaps are even, and the car's purposeful stance from its lowered suspension and Simmons dark spoke alloys with red brake calipers gives it unmistakable street presence. The BOSS 315 bonnet stripe and GT badging throughout confirm the model. The factory FPV GT quad exhaust exits are complemented by the aftermarket performance exhaust. The vendor advises one GT badge has fallen off.
Inside, the GT-specific leather sport seats are embossed with GT script in orange stitching, the FPV-branded sill plates are present, and the GT-spec dual-zone climate control, push-button engine start and FPV instrument cluster with red-lit gauges all remain in working order. The vehicle also carries a factory FPV VIN identification plaque with eagle logo and Datadots security marking, confirming its authentic factory provenance.
