C'mon Ford, when can we get one of these over here? That would be the family's car and I could still get mine too.

G'day Guys and Gals, glad you like the pics.

This is my every day drive car.

The car is showing in a film called 'The Chase is On' on Friday 29th of April in New York at the International Film Festival. Its a free screening.

12:05 PM The Chase is On
Director: Cameron Male
Genre: Action (Australia) 30 min
New York Premiere. Stealing the cash was easy…getting away was the hard part." "Hot wired" from the 70's & 80's genre of Aussie muscle car movies, two GT fanatics are fuelled by revenge after being double crossed by the Mafia. Their mission-steal the money back, plus interest. Oscar-winner and NYIIFVF Award-winner, Aran D’Souza, is the Senior Editor of this Australian film.

I pretty much like the entire line of Aussie Fords.

Wow, I guess I am alone on this one, but I find it to have a lot of the design characteristics I don't like about the GTO, which routinely gets bashed on this site. I do not mean to offend the owner, and do not know of its performance abilities, but it looks more like a "GM effort" than what I would expect from Ford. Long overhangs, bland lines, bulbous shape. It also seems to have a lot of "goodies" tacked onto it. It just doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the designs that are lauded on this forum. The seats certainly are sweet though.
Maybe it's an Aussie thing...

Cam welcome to the site mate!
Your car is fantastic. We have a huge soft spot in our hearts around here for the falcons down under. Post more pics of your car.

BTW i might have to have you pic up one of those slick starter buttons for me

I can't agree more. The Falcon is just an awesome looking car, and I think Ford knows they could sell all they could float up here. The problem is it's a huge undertaking to convert to left drive from what I read. It isn't financially sound to do it.

SUCH a shame.

C'mon Ford...bring that puppy over here! Who needs a bloated looking 300 or Charger, when you could have one of those!
