The best thing for Ford Oz is to be purchased by an asian/indian conglomerate but the odds of this are very slim due to the legalities of using the trademark name etc. Holden are very lucky in this aspect. Ford US are not in the financial shape to maintain their oz operations and you would imagine are more worried about keeping their own heads above water. If another company was to purchase Ford Oz and use it as a base to manufacture large luxury sedans for export as well as local sales then that is still a win. Would be very disappointing to lose the iconic Ford badge lost in Australia.
