Falcon. A good starting point for any one who want to mod up a daily driver with it costing to much.

F6 Typhoon. Technically its Falcon, but technically it also isn't (it does not bear the Falcon name).

Such a hard decison.

Overall it's the Mustang, but Aussie Fords, it's the Falcon and Fairmont.

The Falcon.

The Fairmont is just a nicer Falcon, but a Falcon all the same.

The KA was a terrible car. The best in plastics engineering.

No, can't beat the Falcon.
