bunna Donating Members 813 Member For: 18y 7m 24d Posted 12/07/10 11:03 AM Share Posted 12/07/10 11:03 AM Not a rumour Garry - fact, and well covered in the media for over 12 months.There is no V6 coming - it really pisses me off when people who clearly have NFI keep declaring this as fact. The I6 is here to stay for some time yet.So are all the Expensive Daewoo drivers going to buy Fords when GM goes under? Ford's going very strong globally, how's GM doing?

aiboart Member 665 Member For: 20y 3m 3d Posted 12/07/10 11:25 AM Share Posted 12/07/10 11:25 AM That is great news. The Ford I6 T and the chassis that wraps around it are the Aussie versions of the 911.Though modest in origin, decades of development has seen the development of a design of sublime refinement, flexibility, power, and everyday reliability.There are not too many things out there that can do all that.Any plans for DI for the I6 Turbo, and agility control, and bi-modal exhaust and 8-speed boxes?Regards,aa Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/69320-fg-last-aussie-build-falcon/page/2/#findComment-1024000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

smicky Go Pies!!! Donating Members 2,852 Member For: 17y 2m 2d Gender: Male Location: Vic Somewhere - Sometimes NSW Posted 12/07/10 11:42 AM Author Share Posted 12/07/10 11:42 AM (edited) Just to clear up - the question was not about the 'Falcon' name, or what donk they use... rather the current 'large car' platform.While Ford internationally is doing ok, and well lets not discuss GM - a few have said the 'large car - Falcon out of Melbourne' may not be as we currently enjoy for much longer.Just a few things I have heard from a few very very very close to those in heavenly like positions within Ford Oz.Having said that - yet, they didnt disclose to much other then just what I have said...So yeah - long in short it was all just a 'in theory' question gents...Keep in mind - the Mondao is also a wider car (or is it longer)? I actually cant remember..
