You also have to be jealous of Ian's collection with a GTF on it way to go with his other toys.

That is the best car advertisement I've ever seen in my life.

Not moved by it, I have no emotional attachment to Falcon, but I found it to be a good advertisement, it showed what the GT is about.

Whether they're all sold or not doesn't mean they cannot draw attention to Falcon.

I bought a Thank You yesterday after watching that video.
Just to say thanks to all the folk in that video for the pleasure I've had with the 2 FPV's I've owned and for their dedication.

Great video, I just can't get tired of watching it.
I feel privileged that this all happened within my lifetime.

Ian has captured the essence of the GTF and what it means to so many people.

Can someone please explain how a forum for Ford enthusiasts can have such a poor response to a stirring video about the last ever GT Falcon? In the other threads it seems more people want to crap on the GT, discuss the GTS or harp on that the only end is the GTHO, even though we know it will not happen.
Hell, even talk of old chargers gets more discussion than this monumental video of the last GT. Once it is gone, it is gone, you can not get this moment back again. |

That is brilliant, bit of a coup for Ian as well. Well done.

Great finish for the GT. Still get a grin out of the video. Well done to Ford for producing a video that finally captures the passion of the nameplate. Just as good as the old Tickford one for the TS50 with the stroked motor.

What else can you say that hasn't been said above.
It is a damn shame this video can't be shown in prime time on TV.

Have just downloaded this months WHEELS mag and the video those guys have put together on the GT-F is just bloody brilliant. Not sure if the video has been previously mentioned but here's another plug if it has. Can't post the link obviously, you'll just have to spend the $6.50 to download the mag with the vid
 cheersAm about to watch it again! |

BWAHAHAHA ...............Christ! if anyone has a big stereo hooked up to their computer and wants to hear the GT-F download the WHEELS mag. Gees I got half a chubby, the guys put an awesome video together (I have **** all to do with the mag by the way). Now the guys waiting on this beast will get impatient after hearing that. How anyone could keep that in a garage beats me!!!
