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 |

NA - Never Again
NB - No Balls CL - Centrelink (where all the Ford workers are going.) TH - Thailand (where all the Ford JOBS are going.) KJ - Kevin & Julia (the morons who destroyed our economy and industry.) WA - The only state that will have any jobs left. XJ - comes before XK, and this country is going backwards.

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
