Just wondering what people think of the new Falcon. Has anyone else seen in up close yet. We're ordering a new XR8, is anyone else thinking of getting one?

Have to agree with you there Madonna, both the FPR and Vodafone BF falcons computer generated pics looked awesome and cant wait to see the car on the track. But yeah its looking nice!! The last 3 new falcons have been hot!

Went to see the new Falcons at the Motor Show on Friday, they look good up close. Although I didn’t get a real good look inside cause the only XR8 they had was a Ute. Disappointed there’s no new purple colour, I bet once we get our new one they will release a purple in the MK2…

I don’t know Erin, purple was Holden’s signature colour for their vz ute

I just realised how wrong my message read then, sorry guys glad you understood it though. Totally agree Montanna.

From the pictures I’ve seen, I think the new model looks great! Can’t wait to see it in the metal.

yeah - ive only seen pics of it - and looks hot as. unsure of the xr8 bonnett bulge sticker thingo! lol. but im sure it will grow on me.
just a little note - my husband worked for a ford dealership as a mechanic, and he was told that you should wait to buy the MK2, as they usually nut out any little faults from the MK1. (apparently)

Yeah XR models are great but I dont like the G series it may grow on me but it’s exterior rear looks not right .
Good looking car overall

Even though I haven’t seen the FG in real life, the pics I seen are excellent. I have a few friends going to a FPV Preview Day in May, can’t wait to hear and see what they come back with
.
The FG V8 Supercar is going to look HOT!!

Hmm JW drving a Typhoon - nice thought - hahah

Jamie, when you get to choose your car are there only a certain range you can decide from, I remember Craig saying a few years ago that he wasn’t able to get any of the FPV range.

Yeah i agree totally Lindy, I never buy the 1st series.

before i saw the pics this guy i was talking to said the new Falcon looks like a VE. dunno what he was smoking
Muz [JWCR Team Manager] 11:17 am April 7th 2008
The ute from behind is in similar proprtions to the VE, and does look very Holden-like.
Not a fan of the rear lights.
Still the VE looks better
Jason Maher 11:14 pm April 9th 2008
I noticed the door handles are the same as VE. Thats suks, now they both look like magnas. lol
