Take one GT500 bottom end, Oz spec Boss heads and a dash of Harrop supercharger kit. Now you got yourself a GT-HO. Serve when hot.

That's true.

GT-P (Premium)
GT-E (European Inspired ala ESP)

GT-H = GT Hertz edition.

Either the Mustang is coming down under or it's an FPV. However it's most likely they're just protecting the GT-H trademark from misuse in Australia.

Look at the Mustang / Camaro cars from the US...... They are basically designed in the shadow of the popular body shape that everyone knows..
The FG should've been a retro XY. Sales wouldn't be any worse than what they are now.

I think your pretty much on the money there...

However, it could be both... protecting the misuse of the Mustang Submodel name and maybe using it in the FPV model line up.... If the shoe fits...

GT-H, half way between a GT and a GT-HO.

this may have something to do with fpv being 5 years in production. Look on the fpv website, there is talk of a commemorative edition model to be built
