Ah, NO! If you bring them here, they should be at Ford dealers, since there are ALOT more Ford dealers than there are Mercury dealers. Plus, this car is legendary in Australia, as a FORD, so you don't want to bring it here and change the name and brand it comes from.

Well you could always change the front to have cougar whiskers Just figuring on the low volume, they could redo the nose and call it the Marauder. Mercury has had NOTHING to bring attention to it in a long time. An off-the-wall experiment could get some excitement brewing. I would just bring the 5.4 version though with all the trimmings. Ford could get the pickup version as the new lightning

Money in hand waiting to buy....

I want a car in the next year. Ford is dragging their feet with nothing exciting or even competitive in dealers.

G8=Hot
New 420hp Impala RWD? HOT!
Fusion? Seriously...
C'mon Ford wake up.

Just to let you know, from all reports, the RWD Impala is still ON HOLD (and it looks like it may not happen) till GM gets things straight. All RWD applications except for the Camaro have been stopped till they can get the cost down.

You know... you're absolutely right. Lets start raising funds! Donate dollars so Arin can move to Australia so that Ford will spite him and bring the Falcon to American for all of you to purchase.

EVERYONE wins. Arin wins. You wins. Ford wins. All the gorgeous ladies of Australia wins

That would be quite a garage in OZ, a II, a Bullitt and an FPV XR6

While they may officially be on hold, there's an awful lot of them (both Holden Commodore's and Chevy badged ones as Impala SS-V's) running the streets around Detroit. No camo, just M-plates and style.

Hey, I'm just repeating what Lutz said himself a few months ago. They just can't get the cash for the Impala right now. And about the cars driving around Detroit? There are Ford Falcons and FPV GT's driving around Detroit as well. Car & Driver did an article on these awhile ago.
