The problem is not with the Falcon - the problem is with the brand/product perception.

HSV only sell V8's and they do well so there is a market for V8's. In terms of O/S smaller FI V8's are more appealing then large capacity V8's.

The public is gradually turning away from brute force type cars. They want more refinement, better tech, etc. Quote:
My gut tells me the next generation falcadore will be the last with 5L+ engines. Performance is more likely to be smaller capacity 6's ... twin turbo maybe... ? |

Is that for real? What the hell did some random guy buying a car and paying out on Ford for losing performance and having rattles when ageing? Did they ask any of the Ford, Toyota, Mazda etc. buyers why they bought their brand new car? |

Seems there is nothing wrong with the marketing department after all!!! So Ford has some of the best cars, has THE BEST adds, yet aren't selling... There is still clearly something missing?? |
