Unfortunately the bottom has fallen out of the large car market here in Australia. In reality, it is a sensible move by Ford to stop local manufacturing as they've been bleeding red ink.
It's probably best to retire the nameplate too as Falcon has always been synonymous with rear wheel drive and I6/V8 engines; plus the model has really fallen out of favour.
Ford are holding an information night here in August at which it will provide details of its vision for 2016 and beyond.
Here are a couple of shots of my Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) GT R-Spec. Supercharged 5.0 with 335kW. ZF 6-speed auto. Brembo 6/4 combination.
Sadly, these cars will no longer be made either.
