you have over 1800 posts, are a regular to the new Falcon thread, obviously interested in the new model release, come across one parked in a public space and only take 2 pictures of the front and one of the wheel.

Everyone's asking for an XR front uncovered and he took a pic of one and you people still complain. What's wrong with you people?!

Now that is a clean looking interior. Very nice Ford.
Hopefully well screwed together.

Understandable, when I saw the GT-F mule I only took 3 photos ( and I wasn't even nice enough to post them)

I am not complaining. I am just incredulous that someone is standing next to a new Falcon, who knows the gravity of such an event, and casually takes only 3, very measured exterior photo's. - Shenanigans stands.

What did you want though?
It has been detailed numerous times within this thread that the interior will have minimalistic changes, that even trainspotters would be hard pressed to notice the differences.

Seriously some people are ungrateful sods. Either go and get them yourself, wait until someone does or just wait until release date. Don't criticise/judge others who have supplied pics.

No need for insults. I am clearly stating that we are all wanting more pictures of the new Falcon, which includes the new interior, and I can't understand why someone would pass the opportunity to acquire those images when presented with the opportunity.

Furthermore, Ford is a company, selling a product. They are not doing us favours, we have no obligation to be 'grateful', we simply respond how we respond based on what they offer. It's fine to be a fan, but there are a couple of people in here wearing blinders to be honest.

And I did my part in contributing to it's hard life It has been super impressive though, the LPi engine is fantastic. Driving back to back with a petrol 6 you can really notice the LPi has a lot more balls. It just lapped it up.

Can't wait for someone to post a pic of the new a Falcon interior and complaints will be made about it being the same as the FG even though it has been said a million times on the forum.

The whole point of a forum is the discussion and exchange of different views and ideas. You dont have to agree with everybodies opinions but you should respect their right to have an opinion.

The only thing I object to so far is the discussion of the Taurus in this thread, of all threads.

So did someone mention a December release?

Bugger. I hope not. Thought that if they went to the trouble of making this one then it would be included in the colours. Red would look awesome.
