LOL.
Although I'm sure its just a typing error, one too many numbers in there has pushed it to ten times its original value.

Whoa maybe $42k
The most expensive Falcon of all time in my mind and taking into account the cost of living at the time I reckon would be the XY GTHO $4500 almost twice the price of an XY Fairmont and half the cost of a 3 bedroom brick house in the suburbs of Melbourne 1971 the GT $4500 3 bed house $10000 Fairmont $2800 wages $70 a week petrol 60 cents a gallon (14 cents per litre) packet of Winny red 20s 45 cents 2100 the GT $90000 3 bed house $400000 petrol $1.40 per litre ($5.60 per gallon) packet of Winny $13.00 just my way of thinking that the XY HO was the dearest Falcon in comparison what do others think? thanks John |

Would have been sold elsewhere, thats why they jack up the price so no one will buy it.

Pulled up at a set of lights with a mate in my Orange Supra.
Turn to car next to me and ask "What's retail on one of those" He says " More than you can afford buddy, Falcon FG!" My mate says "Smoke Him"

Hahahah
was gonna say.... $42k for an FG XR6T wasn't out of this world... Given the GT-HO's have been sold for $400k mark (as recent as the past couple of weeks)...
