Share Posted 14/07/13 12:14 AM Posted 14/07/13 12:14 AM Share I think it's a great move as long is pricing isn't too expensive.Just look at the mod scene for stanga's in the US and how much choice we would have for aftermarket parts Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 14/07/13 12:33 AM Posted 14/07/13 12:33 AM Share I'm sorry but to take away the Falcon and give us a Mustang. How f*cking insulting. Heritage aside the Falcon is a far support car. f*ck to America. Stick your Stars and Stripes up your stinky asses. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 14/07/13 01:36 AM Posted 14/07/13 01:36 AM Share Ouch on the starting price!Always get shafted in pricing, really WTF the go with that?Not like there is going to be any local manfacturing to jstify a protection tariff. Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 14/07/13 03:24 AM Posted 14/07/13 03:24 AM Share Yeah I've heard that Europe are getting the 4cyl turbo version.Whether people jump or not, new people will join when the stang comes in. The look alone is something this new era of drivers will go for.I'd love one, the V8 version (depending on what it ends up being like), but don't think it will happen in the next 10 years.Falcon will be missed but Mustang is the next most Iconic Ford init? Nothing will truly replace the Aussie Falcon but happy to still see muscle in their line up in the country. Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 14/07/13 05:10 AM Posted 14/07/13 05:10 AM Share It seems that Ford doesn't have ANY replacement for the Falcon.I believe Ford will simply continue to import the Focus,Fiesta,Ranger,Mondeo and other SUVs along with the Mustang andmaybe "play it by ear" as to what car will eventually replace the Falcon.If the V8 Mustang will be a 5.0L NA it should have at least have the same power level as the current Boss Mustang of about 335kw.

Share Posted 14/07/13 08:18 AM Posted 14/07/13 08:18 AM Share 3 kids across the back seat of a stang and do 5000klm road trip doesn't sound great. This is where the falcon excelled. Grunt of a muscle car and space of a big tourer 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Grunt of a muscle car and space of a big tourerIts 2x2. So that rules me out with 3 kids.I always thought the tauras was supposed to be the falcon replacement... Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 15/07/13 12:09 AM Posted 15/07/13 12:09 AM Share So did I. Not a massive fan of the Taurus. However they show on quite a bit in the TV series White Collar. Apart from hideous American styling it looks to an OK car. Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 15/07/13 02:56 AM Posted 15/07/13 02:56 AM Share I'll sign up. V8 only. Even if the Falcon was still going I'd get one. Don't need a back seat. Rode in a GT in the US earlier this year. Gotta have one when they come here. Price for performance versions needs to be in the range covering XR6T through to GTP and they will sell. The new look of the next year model will be great, some artist impressions already showing up on the web. Taurus also looks good in performance trim, They may bring both models here. The need for a 4 door performance cruiser like Falcon may be waning. Which is the reason they are dropping Falcon (and will eventually drop Commodore) in the first place. However importing them is different to building them here. If they sold as many Mustags here as they are Falcons (even now) Detroit would be pretty happy I think. Next 6-12 months will be interesting. Link to post Share on other sites
