I hate it when I try and read stuff without punctuation and forget to breathe at the same time.

Did a comparison yesterday between the FG-X XR6 Turbo, G6E Turbo and the Mondeo MD Titanium 2.0T - which seems to be the top of the range you can get - and for the pricing - the Mondeo is listed at $44,290, the XR6T at $45,690 and the G6ET at $47,059 - you have to admit the current crop of Falcons bang for buck, have it all over their replacement - I believe the Mondeo is what Ford intend to replace the Falcons with? - considering the FG-X's are both 270Kw versus 177KW for the Mondeo, have a combined fuel consumption of only 3 litres more than the Mondeo and are pretty well appointed.

It will be a sad day when the Falcon is finally retired.

I did the comparison on Redbook.com.au

Hopefully they'll bring out a 2.3 Turbo Mondeo as more of a performance 'sedan' kind of thing, or something of the sort.... Cause there's gonna be a lot of people who want a performance car but want more room than whats in a Mustang.

I hate the fact that the "sedan based" utes are going the way of the dinosaur. Once the Falc and Commy are gone, the only options are the Thai made diesel sh*tboxes. I've owned nearly all of them and they are good cars / trucks - reliable, economical etc, but f*cking boring things to drive.

Unless they grow a set and make a sportier version of, maybe a Ford Ranger with a miami V8? LS2 Colorado. I don't like my chances, but I can dream....
