Kind of reminds me of a Subaru in some ways but I actually think it looks nice.

That front end looks like the changes rumored for the next update....
I wonder how close to the truth that is for the 2016 car, maybe a Ford stylist is chewing his fingernails..... Best of all, it doesn't look exactly like a BA or FG... |

A Mondeo badge wouldn't look out of place on that either.

Guess i like the look...except from the B pillar onwards......though it is a concept after all. Hope it'll have the diesel by then.

The weird lower front door/side shape doesnt really do it for me.

Just goes to show that Ford Oz take staying clues from Europe rather than USA.
I don't mind the extra chrome on the Taurus in US or what's on the Ranger.

Dunno about the 'sucked in' look on the bottom of the doors (not bad though)
I like it, a lot.

Agree looks good.
Thought that 2017 Falcon would have more of the next Ford Fusion look with massive upper grille (which looks awesome). Would like to see how that looks on Falcon?

Is it electric?
If not, who will be able to afford to fill the tank with fuel? Not to bad of a design though. |
