Description

Nowhere else on Earth will you find an appreciation for four-door performance sedans like that found in Australia, and nowhere else will you find the kind of performance that is imbued in the Ford Falcon XA GT-HO. There was only one production model ever completely built. When news of these and other 160 mph “super cars” hit the media, the uproar over public safety was simply too much, and the government stepped in and stopped production. The car would never see homologation or its destiny of dominating Bathurst. You can drive it here in Forza though, and that should be more than enough to validate the following it created.
