I have been installing car phone kits since they have been available. I do work for several ford dealerships and have been seeking a wiring diagram for the new falcon so that I can determine the pickup point for the power,mute and audio input to the sterio as in the BA and BF falcons. Is there such a pickup point or do you have to use the bluetooth unit that comes with the car? Would love a reply as to the possibility of being able to integrate and after market car kit with the new model.

Though the engine for the V6 falcon from 2010 (the Lincoln MKS 3.7litre engine) has outputs of:

Power: 201kW @ 6250rpm
Torque: 359kW @ 4250rpm
Redline: 6750rpm

How in bloody hell does Holdenwoo VE “go better” when they have had 4 recalls, battery issues, numerous electrical problem’s, many warranty claim’s just to name a few, Ford are not perfect, but overall they have better car’s and win more awards, since the BA holden are still playing catch up, why, VE won the biased award from Wheels magazine (so bloody what) but unfortunately also missed out on the important award like Austrlia’s best car accolade, sorry Holden, Ford trumps again with FG, outclassing any close rival…

If you drink premix alcopops, prefer your croisonts (spelling?) warm not hot & your razer gets worn out on your legs not your face then buy the “show pony” commodore ute.

But if you wear your Wifebeaters till they disintegrate, The coffee table is covered in motorbike parts & your best friends name is blue or red then go for the Falcon ute.

Ha ha bloody hilarious should be on the ford ad campaign with holden utes gettin driven by metro’s!!!! Duck u r useless….. ford go better …. yes he has seen the ad, hence he took the piss out of it, honestly how old are u?

Prefer the VE look. Looks much more agressive. However, I did see the new Falcon sedan in the flesh and I must admit it is one very nice looking car, should give the VE a run in the sales department. And I’m Holden blood….
