Personally myself, I am saving up for the overpowered, over optioned, thirsty fuel burning and excessive emission emitting FU Falcon!!!

Does it really matter what the model designation is? Who cares what its called, I am more interested in specs, options, engine choice and price.

They couldn't call it a VD could they?

Are all car manufacturers using the same designation now? every car is now a model designation of MY, followed by its year? or that its "MY" car? It just sounds so stupid, eitherway
The ''MY'' means Model Year. Its used by manufacturers that might make small changes from year to year. It may be something small like a different grill, or something larger like new suspension or a new motor. But regardles most manufacturers who use this system do make changes of some sort.

Also, different manufacturers release new model changes (or updates) at different times of the year. So you could have a MY11 that was released in September of 2010. It just means that next years model has arrived early.

Maybe they'll take a cue from the development name.

I think FU should follow the FG, I think it's rather quite catchy and reminds me of the AU.

I was hoping I'd be the first to say the next falcon should be the FU.

then they could use Lily Allens "FU very much" as it's theme song.

Haha, that is legendary. When I first heard the song that goes 'like a G6', I swear I thought I was hearing a commercial for the Ford G6 . Why doesn't Ford capitalize on this beats me, would bring the G6 to the attention of the young ones who listen to today's trashy music.
