Apex Replicas AR80607 – 1/18 Scale FPV GT-F 2014 in Victory Gold with Black Stripes Scale Model Replica
Presented in June 2014, the GT-F 351 is the last ever Falcon-based GT sedan and last FPV model (along with the Pursuit Ute), with a total production of 500 reserved for Australia at $77,990 and another 50 for New Zealand. Its nomenclature was chosen to mean “F” for final whereas “351” is this GT-F’s engine output in kW as well as a homage to the iconic 351 cu in (5.8 L) engine capacity of the 1970s GT Falcon (XW to XB series). Mechanically, the GT-F features launch control, standard Brembo six-piston front and four-piston rear brakes, the suspension and 275/35 R19 Dunlop Sports Maxx 9in rear tyre package from the limited edition GT R-spec and a retuned version of the supercharged Coyote “Miami” 5.0 L V8 engine (embossed “GT-F 351” instead of “Boss 335”) developing a minimum of 351 kW (477 PS; 471 bhp) @ 6,000 rpm of power (or, depending on prevailing conditions, over 400 kW (544 PS; 536 bhp) for 15–20 seconds thanks to a transient overboost function) but an unchanged 570 N⋅m (420 lb⋅ft) @ 2,500-5,500 rpm of torque that is, however, available across a broader range. Inside, the GT-F is characterised by darker finishes, orange accents throughout (e.g. trim stitching, instrument facia and GT-F seat embroiding) and a build number plate complemented by a certificate. The exterior features stealth or black accents (specifically, the headlight and foglight bezels are black, as are the external mirrors, door handles, rear spoiler and diffuser, alloy wheels) and a unique GT-F stripe package (including over the roof of the car) that is available in different colours depending on exterior paints.
The final GT-F serial number 500/500 was reserved for auction and the winning bidder was given the option to choose the paint colour to make the last Ford Falcon GT even more special then it already was. The winning bidder chose to have the car painted in the stunning Victory Gold colour you see here, which was appropriate given the orginal XR Falcon GT was painted in the GT Gold.
