Ford Fans all let us rejoice, for we are young and free...and bloody excited about whats around the corner!!!
I wonder if Ford/FPV will have enough room on their showroom floor to present all these puppies Ford: Fiesta XR4 Focus TDi/XR5 Mondeo all new models TDi/XR5 Falcon XR Aggresor Pack Falcon Ute by Craig Lowndes 2008 Orion Falcon Models for Sedan and Ute FPV: Typhoon R-Spec FPV GT Cobra FPV GT Pursuit Cobra FPV Territory While it seems sure that HSV will soon release the GT-R, you have to admit that it's great to be a Ford man with so man new models only just around the corner. Take a good look at these sales charts, because it's the last time you'll see Ford turn out figures like that Long Live Ford First On Race Day! Go Frosty Bathurst 2007

Is it just a myth that blood is actually blue inside the body due to pressure and red when we bleed?

I'm sure they can swap the stickers between those FPV cars as the days go by if there's not enough room for another car, lol! :P

Me, My wife and our 3 Boys are Ford freaks till our dying day. As for the future though, well we would rather step back in time and enjoy some of Fords Finest from the past.

only exciting things out of that list for me is the cobra, mondeo and orion. need more x-factor vehicles; xr4 dont do it for me, looks too much plus pocket rockets arent really my thing (except for sp23). Xr5t has been out for a while already; R-spec only increases performance around a track.... still looks the same; FPV territory..... will wait and see that they dont just put a bigger scoop on the bonnet without changing its boring contemporary design.

Im so glad i found this website. and im glad to be a ford man, but it sucks where i live because it seems where ever i go there always going on about holden, hsv, an Brocky. We do have a good colection of cars though, we have a 1982 XE Fairmont Ghia ESP 5.8 ltr and a 2004 BA XT sedan with 19s and larger cross drilled brakes with xr pads. Are planning to get capa flash tuner and an XR spec exhaust kit on it. The XE when it was running 100% could pull mid 13s.

Those 'tards in a VN commonbore that tried way too hard to impress me the other day with their throttle mashing skills in busy traffic only rekindled my Ford vs holden bias to 110 over negative 10.
good to be back

It's finally nice to see something positive about Fords models. Even with these special editions as Ford are trying to move numbers before Orion it at least is keeping the brand name out in the public. Hopefully Ford push forward with brand recognition just before and after Orion. |

Looking like a good lineup, for the next few years.
Doesn't really affect me, as I'm not going to be in the new car market for a while. |
