Default Last falcon model - FH

Hey All,

Mate at work said FH will be the last model ID as it comes after FG

FG = ********** Good
FH = ********** Hell

Makes sense. LOL

I vote FU. Always have. C'mon Ford, have the balls and do it. Load it up with kit and ensure that every model absolutely obliterates its competitors.

Send it off with a bang.

I was gunna say, there's no guarantee it'll be F anything as they've gone from EL to AU to BA and now FG, but they did have BF in there.

I was thinking this today. I think they go back to the X lettering. Maybe XO. A bit gay admittedly but I think it's fitting.

Since FG was an homage to the defunct fairmont ghia, make it the FA - Ford Australia.

I don't like FA - doesn't roll off the tongue and IMO so long as RnD stays, Ford Oz isn't dead.

Maybe BG - an homage to Broadmeadows and Geelong

Maybe MY15 just as a further step to a global system

Switch the BG to GB. The GB (Great Beauty) Falcon. plus Geelong was first and G does come after F.

Does convention dictate it can only be two letters, if not, how about the LAF (14) (15) (16) - Last Australian Falcon or FAF, Final Australian Falcon.

If only two letters then my vote goes BG - Broadmeadows / Geelong or FU. I would gladly put a deposit down now to buy an FU2 as the final Falcon.



Cheers Vincenzo

FE - Final/Farewell Edition

I think they should put the I6 turbo in all xr6's and g6e's and have an xr8 sprint instead of gs
