Ford and Holden work together on making a V8 RWD Coupe (POLL)

[RedHotGT]

I'm putting this thread out there to make a suggestion that i'm sure will polarize forum members out there.

But first, take a look at the Toyota 86 & Subaru BRZ. Keep that image in mind.

Would it ever be possible for Holden and Ford to work together on a V8 RWD Coupe? Now that you've spilled your coffee all over the keyboard, let me explain the idea.

Toyota & Subaru are fierce rivals in several segments of the new car market. They compete against each other in various motor racing categories. They are essentially a red (Toyota) vs blue (Subaru) rivalry, similar to that of Holden & Ford. But in putting those competitive differences asside, and combining their engineering, technology, and design ideas, they've come up with a shared vehicle that is both brilliant in design, looks, and performance, and all for a very affordable price to the consumer.

Holden's reborn V8 Monaro sold very well for a number of years, and with a better executed export plan could have sold much more. Ford fans have been crying out for a 2-door V8 Falcon since the last XC Cobra was sold. What if the two biggest names in Australian Car manufacturing could put their differences aside and work on what could be the most amazing car ever conceived in Australia? They could share ideas, designs, and concepts. They could each end up with their own 'style' of car despite sharing the same underpinnings. They could share the costs - making it more financially viable as a venture, and eventually cheaper to the consumer in the showroom. And with views to overseas markets where both local manufacturers wish to grow they could both grow their export sales, ensuring continued manufacturing and employment opportunity here in Australia with views to grow into the future.

Is this impossible? Well before the 86/BRZ I thought it was.
But in this day and age, I believe that it could be done.
Build a car from the Red corner and the Blue corner.
Make a Purple V8 RWD Coupe right here in Australia.

Don't say it's impossible. Let's make it happen.
