Global Open / Global close windows, with one shot up & down
Keyless entry / keyless start
Adaptive Cruise Control
Lane Departure Warning
Blindspot indication

and that is the current model - just wait for the new model and then compare.

As stated FGII Falcon is good value, it is an older technology platform and therefore it depends what is important to the customer and they will choose.

there are some good features there no doubt about it, dual clutch for me there is a reliability question ,plenty of threads on this, give me a standard tranny please.
diesel for short trips in the city as a daily, there where some question marks about suitability.
towing capacity for the mondy?
styling is an individual thing , if we are making it emotionless it does`nt count,
i`d have the falcon anyway, it`s a good daily and servicing is straight forward, driveline is bullet proof and the correct wheels drive the car ;).
