The Cobra had that very rare ability to look like it was flying flat out down conrod while it was sitting still.
So many things to love about that car, from the pin striping to the matching seat fabric.

But unfortunately it had that big problem that all coupes suffered from...rust.

So it has to be my FGX. The little car that can...the $50k bargain of the century that can go out and play hard with GT-F's and not come home with a bloody nose. I love that car for it's performance alone.

Loved my boat too...the ZH fairlane. Don't know why really, but it holds a special place in my heart.

The starsky and hutch knitted jacket brings back memories... Showing my age and embarrassed to admit I used to wear one.

I must be at the age now when I can appreciate pretty much every model in some way.

I was going to say with the exception of the EA, but the SVO and those AIT turbo's are pretty cool.

Poor old XF is probably the only one I have never really felt anything for.

XA would be my favourite old school but id own one of each if I could.

Im waiting for some of the older T Series members to harp on that a T is not a Falcon..hehe

There's too many to list - like asking what's your favourite pizza. So apart from the obvious, this would look good in the shed.

Oh and then if I had to choose one, the Bill Bourke Special (although having a manual in that would be insane).

Even just finding a photo of a stock one is difficult, what with the type of person who unfortunately buys into them nowadays.

I feel the same way, albeit the love is for clean, unmolested E-series of any description, not just EL XRs. It's fair to say that the E-series Falcons are my favourite. They've become as rare as hen's teeth these days.

My love of Falcons started with the EA, in particular the EA Ghia I thought was one of the best looking four door sedans of its time. While the EL Ghia for me is the ultimate, any clean, unmolested E-series will most likely have me rubber-necking

My top 3 of the ones I've owned:

1. 2016 FG-X Falcon XR8 Sprint - Silhouette - phenomenal car in so many ways - nostalgic purchase and my daily driver.
2. 2001 AU II Falcon SR - Red - comfortable & reliable - I'm a fan of the interior & exterior styling of the AU.
3. 1985 XF Fairmont Ghia - my first Ford - loved the digital speedo, all the buttons on the dash and those oh so soft velvet feel seats.
