New Falcon only hours away…

February 15, 2008 by George Skentzos  




The official unveiling of the new Ford Falcon is now just hours away, and in true CarAdvice style, we plan to bring you all the no-fuss details as quickly as possible.

2008 Ford Orion Fairmont Ghia CGI

Make sure you’re online from noon on Sunday for all the photos, press releases, photos, stories, photos and more photos.

Along with the sedan, Ford is also set to showcase the brand new Falcon ute as well as the highly anticipated FPV range.

Whilst the brand new FPV GT will be toting an HSV-topping (just) 5.4-litre V8 engine, the new F6 is without doubt the performance car to look out for, tipped to produce a restrained 300kW from its force-fed six.

After blitzing the competition as your number-one source for Orion spyshots and leading the way with our exclusive renderings, CarAdvice will be on the front line for your first look at the new Falcon.

    Sadly, Mathew’s on the money. It’s the old car in new clothing but, hey, that’s been done many times before today.

  2. I think golfy and matty dont know enough about it and thats sad,its game over hsv oh and they have alot to worry about it just kills the ve in every way,gt makes the gts look soft.

    Geeze, $800 million spent for that? Looks like I’m shopping elsewhere.

  4. GhisGT says:

    I recon Holden just breathed a sigh of relief.

    $800 million for a face lift?

    I recon people will hardly notice it’s the new Falcon on the road, so much for all this big talk.

    Oh, and lovin’ the interior styling cues taken straight from the VE – two tone identical colour choice, centre info screen in between gauge binnacles. Not to the mention the exterior, I dont even wanna go there.

    Gone of the days where you could easily tell a VB Commodore from a XD Falcon.

    The similarities between the two now are just ridiculous, I laugh at all you people saying its gonna kick the Commodores arse. It’s the same figgen car!
