Well to be fair to them, you can't exactly get a genuine Ford Falcon XB here in the states.


Maybe not, but they could have used a better choice for a base car. The Maverick is way too small and it's body shape is wrong. A better stand in would have been a Torino. They have a similar body shape to an XB Falcon.



Heck they could have even branched out from Ford. Like an old Charger or Cutlass would have worked equally aswell. Considering you would be putting a Monza style front on it anyway.

It's kinda hard to see but this is actually 1 of two real life replicas of the Magnum Opus made as promotion for the game. One (the west coast customs build) was made out of a Maverick and was painted chrome to resemble the Wild Hunt opus you see on all the promotional material. This one, built off a Mustang was the prize of a competition from before the release of the game. I can find no information on who built it, or who won it. Just that it existed.



Also in terms of accuracy. This car is way closer to the ingame depiction of the Shovelface. Compared to the West Coast Customs Magnum Opus which kinda looks like the Wild Hunt version of the car.




Yeah West Coast Customs Wild Hunt looks horrible, like they picked the worst car to do, like Death Rattle or Furnace would've been way easier
