2008 Ford FG Falcon G6E Turbo specifications
April 14, 2008 by Alborz Fallah
Giving buyers the choice of luxury mixed in with performance, the G6E Turbo tops the G-series range. Features are similar to the G6E, apart from the engine, which is the I6 Turbo engine that managed 270kW of power and 533Nm of torque.
The power is delivered through the ZF six-speed automatic transmission and onto the road via 18-inch alloy wheels. The G6E turbo additionally receives a rear lip spoiler and bright headlamp bezels.
Keen buyers can option out a set of gorgeous 19-inch alloy wheels for an additional $2,000.
Sit inside and you will notice different fabric-wrapped lower door trims and an iPod Integration feature.
The G6ET is the most expensive Falcon in the lineup, retailing for $54,990.

People probaly prefer this over the Calais V. But because im a u know what fan, ill still go fot the Calais V.
^oh and *********PRIMO*********
Now this truly is the best Falcon in the FG series you can get without going into FPV’s!!!!
My anti spam word said it best, “TRIUMPH”
ill take one in black with cream interior thnkyou
its s euro calias although subdueed still screams boofhead id love to see one parked next to a 5 sereies
^^who said the Calais V was made for a 5 sereis BMW, its not.
Anti-Spam word Holden. I wonder what the bot size is?
^Meant boot size.
Is the blue colour of the G6ET in the pics ‘Steel’ or ‘Sensation’? What ever it is, I’ll take it!…..With the yellow cashmere leather of course!
I will have the same as Oz,but with black leather
agree,
truely the best coulour to showcase such a master piece
im not so much a fan of black leather anymore it makes the interior feel depressing i like the cream bottom with black top area.Plus those who say cream is dirty are kidding themselves in leather all you do is wipe the seats.
Ford have got it right here but really there is still something awkward and forced about that rear end. sorry – but its hasnt grown on me like the rest of the car. But thats a holden fan being picky. If thats all i can complain about i think that means ford has a winner here.
Best falcon in the range.. hands down.
oz i kinda have to agree with the cream is dirty of one reason it’s a prick to keep clean i know because the escort has cream interia
FORD FALCON G6E TURBO also 0-100 5.1sec what a shame Ford are going to kill of one of the best,if not the best engine there got in there world wide engine arsenal.
not an independant reviewer yet has been able to get anywhere near the acceleration times claimed by holden. it’s much slower than claimed. even with the new 6.2L engine. now the new falcons on the other hand seem to be faster than claimed. this g6e turbo really is the business. I’m salivating at the thought of what the typhoon will do. pity they aren’t awd.
More POOF’S,. TURBO IS KING, see you later…………….. I hope the brakes will work? Don’t buy one if you ant willing to give it a hard time! To many POOTERS on the road already~!
The G-series is the Falcon model that doesn’t look a lot like the outgoing BF. The XT and XR versions have a lot of resemblance to their predecessors, which may affect the FG’s overall impact in trying to win back people to buy larger cars, let alone trounce on the Commodore. The G6 grille is fantastic – could easily be linked to Lincoln, but unfortunately, it won’t be made in LHD.
Awesome…….does anyone know what the name of the colour is…”steel” or “sensation”
i currently own a BA XT 5.4L V8, i really love it, had it for 7 years now, and now it has 295000ks on clock, will get rid of it after i drove the G6E, despite the V8s low end push and shuv, once the G6E gets over 2000rpm it leaves my current 5.4L for dead.
On roll starts the V8 holds up for 4 seconds and then the G6E Turbo leaves it for dead once again …. that is 60-160km/h.
I am amazed.
I HAVE TO AGREE WITH YA PEOPLE, G6E TURBO IS A REALLY SWEET LIMO! I USED TO DRIVE ALL SORTS OF V8S AND BIG 6.0L CAPRICES AND CALAIS MODELS, THEY WERE REALLY GOOD AND PLEASING, BUT THIS THING IS A VERY MANEUVERABLE, EASY TO USE, MORE COMFORTABLE, MORE ECONOMICAL, TORQUEY WEAPON, 270KW OF POWER, 533NM AND WITH OVER BOOST 586NM THAT CAN LAST UP TO 7 OR 8 SECONDS UNDER PEDAL TO THE METAL, ITS AMAZING! , WE ARE TALKING ABOUT LITERALLY 98% OF F6 310 PERFORMANCE HERE FOR LESS $$$, A REAL RIPPER! , I OWN ONE AND AFTER 2000KS OF DRIVING THIS THING I THINK THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE MY CAR FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS AND I WILL NEVER SELL IT FOR ANOTHER 10 SUMMERS BECAUSE THIS IS IT, BIG 4.0, TURBO, REFINED AND A KING OF THE ROAD ONCE AGAIN, SO FAR I’VE SAID GOODBYE TO A FEW C63S, LS3S AND M5/M6 BMWS, EVEN A KISS OF DEATH TO A SIMILAR F6 MY WORK MATE OWNS, THIS G6E IS A TRUE VALUE FOR $$$, YOU SHOULD BUY ONE, SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR 6.0L COMMODORE AND BUY THIS, TRUE AUSSIE I6.
