I think its quiet clear these days that the Falcon is a much better car then the Commodore (Current models) but alot of people seem to not give a sh*t if it wears a Holden badge they still buy it. Probably because of Holden having a much more popular fan base over the last few years aswell. |

It will be interesting to see what the media say about a heavier Holden. Ford was heavily criticised for the BA being heavier and thirstier than AU. By my recolection though it had 25% more power with only 5% worse fuel consumption.

Standard VFACTS figures DO NOT include export figures. Otherwise, Toyota's Camry & Avalon would be outselling Ford! |

yeah lets just hope it (orion) doesnt turn out as an onion.... like the au did... although it was a decent car, and still is... it wasnt the best looking model... just hope it lives up to expectations...
