Top comment, me too. At last someone who understands the XB language without it just being a coupe. I think the HQ had it all over the XA the XB over the HJ but I really think that the CL looked tough over the XC and HX. Ahh the seventies, when every aussie car became a classic!

So for me, a V8 XB even as a four door.

[UtesRGR8]

1. XW or XY
2. XB Coupe
3. Late 60's to early 70's - Cortina, Escort or Capri two doors/coupes. I have a soft spot for these when they are tastefully modified.

[Werd.]

I don't care what anyone thinks, T3 TS50.

[290GTP]

XC Fairmont hardtop

Are you asking an open question of everyone or asking for people to agree with your preferences?

Maybe a poll and only allow options which you agree with would have been better.....

Have to disagree there, I always thought the 70s Falcon coupes were a bit fat and a little disjointed compared to a Charger and the interior of those model Falcons was an absolute travesty. The early Monaros were nice looking two doors HK/HG/HT.

Favourite Falcon two door is XP, favourite foor door from a styling point of view was XR/XT. They did some nice things with stickers through the 70s to try and make the cars look good but from a pure styling perspective the Falcon's heyday was the late 60s.

I just thought that it was universally accepted the au wasnt the best looking ford??? Did they find its chief designer at the bottom of the harbour wearing concrete shoes yet?

Im just surprised at some of the responses, people like what they drive i suppose?

[ZA-289]

Yes people do have different opinions to you.....

That's correct - T-Series are a model in their own right and do not wear a Falcon badge.

Exactly; after all who'd ever vote for a BA XR8 except for someone who owned one.

Tanks are good for pushing slow BA XR8s outa the way.

[TheInterceptor]

So people dont like the AU, ok and..? There are others who like it...and?

Amazing how people have....individual opinions!

Id take an AU1 forte wagon in black anyday of the week, the same as Riksta taking his VN...

Yes just like Futura, Fairmont, Fairmont Ghia, G6, G6E, G6ET etc. but they are all based on a falcon chassis and the majority of people recognise them as such.

[T3man]

Actually a Futura is still called a Falcon as far as I know. I've seen plenty of Futuras over the years that still have the Falcon badge.

I was going to put a XD Phase 5 on my list, but was a bit fearful of being abused? I realize they were based on a XD ESP and built by Phase Auto's, but couldnt you buy one of these brand new off a Ford showroom at some stage around 1981?
