That is pretty impressive for the Falcons. The Territory wasnt much more than rrp though.
Great to see the choosen beneficiaries benefitting. I suppose we will see justification from the dealers now for some of the ridiculous prices they have new ones advertised for. Sprints in particular. Still i suppose something is only worth what people are willing to pay. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

In a way I'm surprised that Ford Aust didn't hold back with the auction till the remaining stocks of Falcon/Territory were sold, but obviously they didn't need to. Either way, this money is certainly going to good use on robotics education at Geelong and Broadmeadows schools. I hope it can lead to some new large scale manufacturing in Victoria. |

I reckon the xr6 Sprint is a bit of a bargain for a collector.
Imagine in 20 - 30 years time saying you have the last and fastest Australian built Falcon that is arguably the best car they ever produced..... might even attract more hype than a xy gtho phase 3...... |

Unfortunate there wasn't a manual Sprint 8 in the mix. Would've been interesting to see its relative sale price.
