probably not, just chucked it on lol. The spyshots show the FPV skirt, and spyman has said the rear will get the GS style insert, so im just assuming that a GT spoiler could be used...that's if the boot profile is the same.

Hi Guys,
I wasnt really happy about the last chop, the grille was way too big. I sized it down during my lunch break and just added a bit of highlights, hopefully its closer to the real thing. Enjoy! |

I think the front will be hit or miss, i just hope the teaser vid was misleading, and the angle warped the grille to look like a Taurus grille...i much prefer the mustang/fusion style...

Spyman, when can we expect a glance of the interior? not that I want it revealed too soon... Ford has a program after all, and with spyman, the fb page and the photoshoppers building interest, they may have more interest than anticipated.

All the evidence is in the teaser video guys.
A great starting point would be to take the FG Ute above, and look at the shut lines, look at how the outer edge of the headlight lines up with the lower fog light surround etc. This won't change... A falconised fusion would be closer to the next Falcon, than a Taurus or FalcStang... I will see If I can better better express my thoughts as a sketch soon... |

The wait is the agonising bit for me. In the market now for a V8 sedan, and taking my rose coloured glasses off the generals product is pretty good. When VE was released and their was a 18 month wait for FG, it didn't phase me. VE was very meh.. to me. It's sad we give our opposition such a head start in getting the car to market. Far too many sales lost that way

Regardless....I'ts going to look 'tuff' gathering by renders and first hand accounts.
Sad in a way....I remember being so excited as a young bloke going into the newsagent and seeing the wheels magazine spy shots and covers on the new Falcon....and even the Commodore,something that we will never see again. All I can hope for is....production workers,get ready for some extra shifts and overtime and do us Falcon fans proud till the last car rolls off the line. |

Not a falcon but a fusion... Located somewhere in Vic. Wonder why it's missing the tail lights? Also seen the Escort going in a secret entry at Prodrive today, near where it was last pictured here. Wonder why they have it?
