Ford Falcon

[ExplorerDMB]

I was doing some research on some things and came across a video and I thought it looked like a Ford badge on the front. Well, turns out - it was. It is a vehicle that Ford Australia has put out. It has three types: XR6T, XR6, and the XR8 (production date of '03)

Here are the pictures:

Here is the XR8:

Here is the truck version being dynoed:

XR6 Turbo Stage 1


I found this car to be rather nice (looks like it would do well in the states, but I am not a Ford Rep. so my opinion doesn't matter). But it looks along the lines of a focus and contour put all in one (except the truck one). What do you all think?

Oh, I found this picture of the engine being tested: looks like it gets hot:

That second one looks like a Contour and a Lightning got a little busy in the bedroom

Falcon XR6 features plus/or:

* Boss 260 - 5.4L DOHC V8 4V engine
* 6-speed manual transmission
* 18" alloy wheels (set of four)
* Prestige audio system with LCD display screen and 6-disc in-dash CD

I'd buy that if it came out in america its got a beast of an engine for such a little car.
