For me personally, if I was ever to buy another new Falcon of any kind, the letters GT says it all, end of discussion in my view.

Yet you own a T3 not FPV GT.......

good points with all of them , i love the look of the GS , i love the GT cause its the king of heritage , and i love the under rated F6 .
For this reason , IF IN DOUBT , always buy the GT . but if you have reasons buy the one that suits . YOU CANNOT GO WRONG !!!!.
WHEN YOU DRIVE A GT . YOU SAY TO YOURSELF , i am the king , do not try to mess with me , WHEN YOU DRIVE A GS , YOU SAY , Hmmmmmm .
WHEN YOU DRIVE A F6 you say . WTF , this is not supposed to be !!!

GOOD LUCK !!!

Hi Mark, reading your post, Im wondering with not being a smartarse but what else would you consider in that price range that has similar power output and is also a respectable family car? I would of thought these cars would be the winners in that field hands down. Thats talking standard ofcourse. If we were modding the yes, a BF Turbo at half the price modded would run laps around these three standard.

The only one who can decide which one to get is you.

If you are after maximum acceleration, then you want the new GT, or maybe an F6 if you rather a 6 cylinder. If you're the kind of person who doesn't like the raccoon eyes, GS it is.

Actually Flappy, I own a AU S3 XR8, not a T3.. I sold my BF2 GT-P for the XR8 and never looked back to be honest.

But as I said, if I was to buy another new car (99.9% chance never happen), out of the 3 choices from the OP, the GT would be my pick hands down.
A s/c 5.0 one, NOT a Boss 5.4.

Hi CRYHSV, I'm not saying they aren't good cars, but my experience would say it would be foolish not to consider the entire market. For example I would also consider going a year or two older than the FG and have a look at some of the BMW, Audi, Lexus or even a Merc's that are on the market.

^^ I think there could be a few reasons there's a five month wait on the new 2012 model BMW 328

To the OP: Save yourself a heap and go for a well looked after TE50. That would be my choice.
If your heart is set on an FG, then I wouldn't look past the F6 ute.

The only problem is its ageing now, but isn't old enough to be considered an 'old school' muscle machine like a XY or something
