I really dont like it!... If the Falcon comes out like those pics suggest,
Doesnt look sporty at all... it looks more like the 500's cousin, which is a bad thing

It's not bad. It's a little boring on the exterior, but the interior looks really nice. If Ford made a few changes to the outside, it could be a good looking car. Also, in the pic from the rear of the car, it's apparent that the car really needs dual exhaust, or al least dual tips.

It does look alittle 'plain Jane' on the exterior, but that is a fairly nice interior. And I've got to agree with Doug I'm definitely curious as to what FPV is going to do with it.

FPV who puts out the 4.0L turbo I6 w/ 362 hp and 405 lb-ft for their F6 Typhoon & F6 Tornado, and a NA 5.4L w/ 390 hp and 385 lb-ft for their BF GT, GT-P, PURSUIT & SUPER PURSUIT

this is still the current-gen Flacon, freshened. If we get one it will most likelt be the next-gen which is in developement.

The low ends + bubble roofline of the Aussie cars has never appealed much to me, they need to go for a more 427-style profile on the next car, something masculine.

Of course if you read all the responses (including ours) they are all over the board. I'm sure this is why Ford doesn't want to risk the big money necessary to bring these babies here. Cash burnt like that in vein will bring the company down even faster.

Yeah, it's far better to have unanimous concensus. For instance: "The 500 bores the ever living **** out of me."
