I think the FG is the best looking Falcon. Especially the XR models. I hate the wheels on the GT.

XA-XC Coupes, cobra the ultimate looker. Just love those curvaceous flanks. The Jennifer Lopez of the car world. Ggrrrrowwll.
XA GT Sedan, my first love. Looked tuff as nails. EL XR6/8 - WITHOUT the extra body kit. Not necessary on what is a good looking car to begin with.

60's: XR & XT Falcon GT, XR & XT Falcon Wagon
70's: XB Falcon GT Coupe and Sedan, XB Falcon Ute & Panelvan 80's: XE Fairmont Ghia ESP 90's: ED Falcon XR8 Sprint, EL Falcon XR6/8, & XH2 XR6/8 ute 00's: AU2 & AU3 XR6/8, BA & BF GTP, FG GTE PS: I agree with Bearman, the optional extra bodykit on the EF/EL XR range is overkill - it takes that nice clean sleek shape of the EF/EL and makes it bloated instead.

I heard Commadore owners would rather follow a EF over an EL XR due to the EL's ugly orange tail lights.

For me the AU II and III XR's without the body kits are right up there.
Still a fantastic looking car overall and with some modern minor tweeks front and rear it would crap all over some of the spaced out stuff on offer nowadays Really love the BFII phoons as well.

FG F6 in black with dark argents for mine - understated but aggressive. Fantastic looking car.
FPV GT's can look great as long as not overdone. BA/BF still look ok despite their age, especially in the right colour. I don't know older cars that well, but i'm sure some classic Falcons look fantastic too. All AU/EB range just woeful. ps: Dislike all Falcons with lairy flouro/pastel colours, 'racing stripes', big wings and so on - but that's just me! Last edited by MercuryT; 16-03-2014 at 02:01 PM. |

In order, from favourite...
XA GT AU3 XR6/8 (with the rebel kit) XC Cobra Any X series coupe XY GT XP coupe EL XR EB GT XD, XE, XF don't do a lot for me, but I'd be happy to own any XD/XE V8. Pre XP also don't do a lot for me, but as above, I'd own any one of them. B series do nothing at all for me, perhaps the most boring Falcon ever made. And unfortunately Ford went for the Camry look with FG.

Guess sales suggest the BA/BF were in fact great looking cars (which they are) - especially compared to a Westinghouse on wheels with a wing (EB GT)
The FG (especially FPV versions) looks nothing like a Camry? Can't believe I've read that nonsense!! |
