Description

Unless you live in Australia, mention of a Ford Falcon will likely only harken a memory of a mild-mannered mid-size sedan from America’s past. However, Aussies must have been greasing the palms of Ford executives, because they have been getting their own Falcon all along, and it has been one of the island continent’s bestselling vehicles. There’s also a long standing rivalry with a car called the Holden(GM) Commodore that has been making V8 Supercar racing exciting for decades. So, what you are looking at here is the latest, special model Falcon. A RWD four-door sedan with a 5.0 liter V8 and all the suspension and braking to make it an extremely fun drive. The 351 badging is a nod to the original Falcon GT and as sure as Australia’s Hungry Jack’s is actually Burger King, you can bet it was built to make an impression with car enthusiasts who know a performance vehicle when they see one.
