I think that could possibly be the g6e model, judging by the chrome surround in the bumper...still looks nice though

Gee that neon is pretty intense. Looks good, but so did the back end of a FG XR.

Ford ... Spin This Big - PLEASE !
Am I the only one who will just cease being a car enthusiast altogether and find new hobbies, while admiring the FG/F? stowed away in the garage, and flicking through 90's and 00's car magazines, reminiscing about the days when we had 'real' cars.

Not looking forward to the future. I can just imagine the front pages of the car mags: 'new hydrogen 3 series', hybrid super godzilla supercapacitor GTR, KERS Volvo S-Whatever, new Suba-yota EV86 Synergy Drive, Ecoboost 1 Cylinder 100cc quad turbo, Hyundai Exodus, Mahindra tonka truck, Google Motors robot car, Lada-Skoda Nuclear powered car...

Pretty sure it was just a coincidence, Ford would have an exact plan of what days to release images, etc I am assuming

LOL

Yeh, so it’s more likely Callum forced Ford to release teasers of the new Falcon earlier than scheduled..........as opposed to Callum being a destraction to Fords scheduled marketing release?

LOL carrot must of been good.


LOL

Gotta love the comments

"Why bring it out there's no point" and Holden Guys "it won't have the same sales impact as VF"

Probably won't because of the interior, but it will absolutely look 10000 times better when next to a VF. VF's are ***

If you guys will indulge me, here's another version. I expect to get it 'right' sometime around the 12th of never.

Oh, if you're going to use this image, please credit this board as the source, or don't use it at all.
