Imagine if FPV got there hands on these would make a great Falcon World car.....Ford you listening, just needs a few cosmetic changes to appeal to the Australian public.

Already has

3.5 litre V6

Paddle Shift

Quad Cam

AWD = great! Paddle shift = crap! Looks like an American Ford = sorry! Mustang is the only :idunno: Yank Ford with style. When will they learn? All Fords sould be designed here or in Europe.

Apart from the ugly styling, here's why it's fail.....

East west engine, it's awd based off a fwd platform, if it were north south then maybe...

Without driving the car I can still tell you that it's a nose heavy understeering sh*t box that hopefully will never make it out of america

Other than that it's fat and slow and stock for stock our turbo FG eats it alive, standard these things do 14's

If it's not inline, it's not fine!

Just because it's based on the FWD doesn't meen it has to drive like one.

Golf R is based on a front wheel drive but it's got a rear biased awd system...

Golf R is refined in Germany not by Neanderthals who think rear control arms are still a good idea....

...........sounds a bit like a Boss powered Falcon :stirthepot:

Despite what any of you say or think, this is one of the best looking sedans built by Ford in the US and the V6 will eventually replace our IL6.
