Meaning its not just a MK2 update with some badges and few major changes like the BF2 was to most people.

Yes, it's definitely a typo, should be FGII or III, stating it will be either FH or FZ as we have assumed.

Agree strongly re:Matt black side stripes on Smoke duco - was thinking precisely the same thing, thanks to Renegade's spiffy makeover. Was thinking the early FG optional 'XR8' side flash would do it......

Not that it bothers me in the slightest, but I noticed there's no, or I can't see , sensors for the wipers, G6E only...?
Glad I decided to wait for this one, my Christmas present to myself...! |

Wow! Looks like we have a winner on our hands. Love the smoke render of the XR8. Well done Ford.

What a great looking car. Part me is a bit sad the last ever Falcon release was leaked. So are we expecting a full interior and exterior release tomorrow or just the front shot?

Make no mistake, I don't care whether someone is a Ford or Holden fan, looks are subjective most of the time. In this case, they are not. The new Falcon buries the VF - and I'm being objective.
