IMO the FQ models are a complete rip off

for the extra 2k you would spend on a FQ-300 over a 260 you could pay for an Ecutec Re-map, hi flow fuel pump and 3 inch exhaust and up the boost to1.4/5 Bar. that would get the car to 360bhp Easy

Even still the X is Awesome
I've heard the interior build quality isn't the best... you're really paying for the engine.

I seen one in dundrum today. Didn't get a picture as I was driving and have enough points. (that and it's dangerous of course)

that car could never be used for pursuits.

they only use it for moving organs for transplant etc quickly.
No real functionality.

Evo has a lot of functionality. for a start it has 4 doors LOL

For the win...

Jip · 31-10-2008 10:51am

They've had Evos for a long time now, unmarked at least anyway, anyone who watches Traffic Cops on BBC should now that ;-)

Don't they have these already?

be surprised if the stickered up ferrari's arent anything more then a publicity thing, and are just rolled out at recruitment drives etc (doubt they'd even use em for organ movement - much more likely to use a motorbike, or helicopter)

the evo on the otherhand is actually actively used as seen in the pic

Soon we won't be able to differentiate between the cops and the criminals, will all bady guys start driving Ford Mondeos and Fiat Puntos all of a sudden.
