2014 FH Falcon

[XtRmn8]

My pic is more representative of the shti looking falcon

that's an early photoshop/artists impression of what the updated Falcon may look like.

To be fair it actually looks better than the artist impression you posted.

But in my opinion its still an awkward looking thing no matter what angle you look at it from.

I just hope it doesn't make my FG look too out dated when it's released...

I'm on the fence with the new one, it looks ok but it seems a bit of a cheap send off, just new front and rear.

without a vastly improved interior, what has been the point really? just to blend in styles from global ford models?

I thought FG2 would grow on me more than it has, whereas FG1 looks more like a complete design.

and since nothing has been said about the xr6t getting the 310 tune (or has there been?), then I really think the FG1&2 will be the cars people will still want to buy in the future (if low km and original).

If you are referring to the F6 310kw donk, there is more to it then just the tune.

The FGX XR6T has the same output as FG. All of the specifications for the updated model are on the Ford website.

car makers have always done that to re introduce people to their dating cars without having to spend the dollars on an all new model. think vt- (1998)- vz (2006) commo-that was the same body all the way through with upgrades to front and rear and interior.

same with ba/f falcon. an au body with new front and rear hanging panels and different interior.

if ford wasnt axing the falcon I would expect to see another model after the fh using the same body but maybe with an all new interior.

This really is a dissapointment from Ford.

Those round side vents are an exact copy of the Mazda3.

The tissue box sliding cover is an exact copy fromthe honda accord euro.

The big mouth grill is a copy from the Jag.

They are just trying to change the FG.

They are Eurofying the car????????

[Kimberley Scott]

You say that like its a bad thing.

It is a bad thing, FG1 was the original and the best it all went downhill from there.

Aussie cars are supposed to look tough, not gay.

Nothing wrong with Euro features, but Euro cars pull it off the best.

Talking about RIPOFFS

[XtRmn8]

The interior CGI that Ford released is from a Territory and not the Falcon. The Territory has have the round air vents and center console storage with slid door cover since SZ update in 2012.

Sh!t me that Falcon enthusiast/lovers can't tell the difference between the two considering both have been out for years.

The interiors of both the updated Territory and Falcon are physically identical to the current SZ and FG Mk2 models. The only obvious differences are seat trim, some interior trim colour changes and the ICC has a complete new SYNC2 interface. Other minor differences are the dash fascia on some models has some minor changes and some of the physical buttons on the ICC are relocated.

This is the new XR8 interior.....
