A Falcon coupe would be a disaster, as much as we all want to see one it will never sell in high enough numbers to justify the expense required to make them. The Monaro proved that, beyond the first year when the novelty wares off no one buys them anymore. Ford learned that lesson the hard way when the XA-XC coupes sold like hot cakes for a year or 2 then totally bombed by the time the XC came around. Enter the XC Cobra to get rid of the last 400 shells that no one wanted.

We had the HOs first release in 69 culminating with the Phase 3 in 71. Then we had to wait 30 years 'till 99 to get the T-Series which also evolved through three series to culminate with the T3, the only true modern day muscle car (from Ford at least). So look ahead to 2029 and we'll see what "muscle" Ford can deliver then.

For christs sake fpv WAKE UP!!! Actually, GT Falcons were just Fairmonts with stripes and stickers. Not much has changed at Ford in the past 40 years.

It will only have a sticker that will distinguish it from other GT's- Ford hasnt had ball's to do anything special for years.My two cents......
