Okay - so they'll probably be common place in future, but this FPV Typhoon sure caught my eye with it's mandarin paintwork offset by the Typhoon's grey blackouts and slick looking wheels...from the time it passed me on the Hume I knew I just had to have a photo of this car.


There's those deep dish billets again!  Rice-ish headlight 'eyelids' have not exactly been a favourite of mine - but on this particular example and with the semi-gloss black colouring, this one looks surprisingly good.  


Now this is the sort of thing that get's me going...originality to the extreme!  Carbon fibre bonnet, chrome mirror, lazer cut polished stainless grill, spoiler-less boot lid, monochrome front bumper & flames - even Boyd Coddington would be proud!

Check out that grill!!!  An obvious promo car (check out the number plate) - but if you produce one this good you deserve the free plug it gets by being shown!



White Momo 19's, darkened tail lights & dark tint on the windows is all that it takes to get a GT (or in this case, GT-P)  looking as good as this...


Above: From the sublime to the absolutely crazy, this creation from CAPA based on their BA XR8 ute was about as legal as doing a burn-out on the lawn of the local law courts!  For sheer in-your-face stand-out ability, it gets 20/10.  But it's about as stylistic as bolting a esky to the top of your V8!


Yeah sure - it may just be a stocky XR6 with XR8 bonnet and nice wheels - but this one had the look that not every combination had.  Mmmmm - phantom!
