That's an interesting statement and possibly why Falcadores aren't seen in the inner city very often. I'm not for a minute going to pretend that an XR6T is better than a C63, there are specific circumstances where a Turbo is faster than a C63 but overall they're not even close. The exhaust note from a C63 could be classed as pornographic its that good.

But the question that your asked was why aren't Falcadores seen in the inner city? And I think you answered your own question. Falcons and Commodore's simply have the wrong badge on them. The inner city is in my experience populated by affluent people who feed on their social status and "stuff" is a way for them to inflate their status. A Jag or a Porsche is seen as a status symbol. A Falcon or Commodore is not seen as a status symbol, in fact they are often seen as the opposite. There has been a large amount of cultural cringe over the past decade towards those that proclaim themselves as Australians, whether through the products they buy or through their actions.

Also bear in mind the buying public as a whole has moved on from purchasing large sedans and moved towards smaller vehicles like the Mazda 3 or Corolla.
