Ford should export the falcon complete range to europe and the uk and the usa and samoa its about
time country’s like italy needs bigger cars for taxis with lpg or cng or diesel models and here in australia they should bring out a common rail diesel 6 cylinder or 4 cylinder motors in them like taxis would like them due to hi kms it would be a better motor for taxi use and i would like to see the first turbo diesel ford falcon in a ute sadan and wagon and the terretry suv and i think the turbo diesel in the ute would be popular with tradesmen and have a 4wd falcon wagon and ute with a low range gearbox with a transfer case and all models should be e 85 compatable

I’ve seen the pics and the new Falcon looks ok but theres no ‘wow’ factor to it. It looks like any other car today but at least its not a ‘bad’ looking car so it will still sell but I don’t think its got enough to take it to Commodore. The VE Commodore was so fresh in its design when it came out and it still has solid looks a year in wheras the new Falcon just looks weaker and Holden are not asleep, they’ve got some good stuff ahead.
I hope Falcon lasts as we need it, its not a 380 which was nowhere really and it should hold its mantel, I would hate to see it disappear.

Aussie…
You reckon Ford copies Holden but why don’t you wake up to reality and see how Holden copies Ford before you accuse Ford for anything.

Holden copied the ute Ford had 14 years before Holden was part of GM.

Holden copied the XK Falcon design for the EJ Holden

Look at the fin on the boot of an XY Falcon GT, then look at the fin sitting on the boot of an VE Commodore.

Look at the bonnet scoops on an XB Falcon then look at the last Monaro’s bonnet.

Ford had a sticker on their cars with Ford’s slogan in the 80s, “Ford Australia – We’re Moving With You”. Then look at the sticker Holden had on their cars after that.

So you reckon Ford copied a 1 year old Holden design, what kind of Holden was that? It’s obviously not the VE Commodore because it’s over 1 year old now. You never stated what Holden Ford copied off did you…

Nice to see Ford copying most of Holden’s design of the body… again.
(Have a close look at the 1 year old holden and the yet to be released ford, notice anything similar?)
Shame on Ford!!

It’s probably true that the Falcon will not hit the American market without some modifications; for instance, the latest engineering news here is the Twin-Force twin turbo technology that is being applied nearly across the board, and the brand new “Boss” V-8 that might fit well in the Falcon. An interestng product for Austalian buyers could be the Edge SUV or Sport Trac with all wheel drive and a Twin-Force V-6 of about 415hp!!!
