The Ford Falcon is a full-size car which has been manufactured by Ford Australia since 1960. Each model from the XA series of 1972 onward has been designed, developed and built in Australia, following the phasing out of the American Falcon of 1960-71 which had been re-engineered locally for the harsher Australian conditions. As a result of the longevity of its Australian production, the Falcon is one of the biggest selling names in world automotive history, selling over 3,000,000 in six generations to 2003, almost exclusively in Australia and New Zealand. As of July 2007, Ford sells upwards of 3,000 units per month.

Ford has manufactured over three million units since 1960, and has topped the sales charts in Australia on many occasions. Currently the Falcon line-up is offered in sedan, station wagon, and utility body styles, however in the past panel vans and hardtops (coupes) were offered. Australian made Ford Falcons and Holden Commodores dominate the ranks of taxis in Australia and New Zealand, and are also used as police patrol cars.

Luxury variants of the current model Falcon, collectively known as the G Series, are marketed as the Ford G6, G6E and G6E Turbo. Other Falcon based models developed by Ford Australia, but no longer in production, are the Ford Futura, Ford Fairmont and Ford Landau, as well as the long wheelbase Ford Fairlane and Ford LTD.

Future of Ford Motor Company in Australia?
Q. Just seeking some opinions here in a public forum. I am an employee/tradesman at the Ford Falcon assembly plant in Broadmeadows, Melbourne Australia. With all the news of Ford losing $8.7 billion dollars last quarter, and closing many plants and sacking tens of thousands of workers in the US, how much longer can the Australian manufacturing division of Ford go untouched? We just launched the new Falcon model inj April and are already planning to reduce shifts and we have down days (production employees stay home, paid 50%) once a fortnight. And we just launched a new model! There is plans to build the new 2010 Ford Focus in Australia and not South Africa, but I don't understand why, in the current climate, it makes sense to do so. What… [cont.]

A. if our dollar weakens, then it seems likely that Australia could become the rear-wheel drive production centre of Ford globally. Ford in US would save quite a lot of money. If our dollar stays as strong as it is, or worse, gets stronger, than I doubt that this would happen. It would not be profitable enough, and production could halt all together, and (as much as I wouldn't like this to happen) Australia could be left without any of its own models, and minimal production here. Ford could even end up just selling US models here, or just surrender all its fleet sales to Holden... Whatever happens, I wish you the best of luck. At least all the Chrysler blokes, got to go to Mitsubishi when they first opened here...

Would anyone consider importing one of these cars from Australia?
Q. I live in Sydney Australia, and alot of people here like to buy imported cars, whether they be old school cars from the US or Nissan Skylines, Toyota Supras etc from Japan. The qustion that I am asking is, do people know of the performance cars that are built in Australia? The new GTO in the US is an Australian product, which is just a two door version of the Holden Commodore. The Commodore is one of the most common family cars on our roads. I drive a Ford Falcon FPV F6 Typhoon, which is a 4.0 Litre, six cylinder, DOHC, intercooled turbo. This car has some light modifications and runs 10.1 second quarter mile times. This car is also a rear wheel drive, is a full size four door family sedan and weighs over 3000 pounds. Have a look at… [cont.]

A. I have looked at the Holden website. It is amazing that you have such versatile cars/trucks available. The HSV packages are exciting. Yes the American cars are exciting, but you can still get a rear wheel drive GM sedan with a V8. The Ford offerings are interesting, too. Too bad we don't get the cars in the US that you get in Austraila. An interesting fact: My 1998 Isuzu Rodeo has a Holden 2.2 litre engine.

A. I got the darkest legal tint put on my White Camry a couple of moths ago. The darkest is 30% all around i think and 20% on the back window. I paid $265 from the Tint Proffessor. Seemed like a job well done for me.
