The Everest looks really good. Can't believe they didn't give us more info on the falcon.

well they won't show anything on the mustang until usa gets it first and the falcon won't break cover until it must... this is just a cash grab "here are the models coming from o/s" sorry ford workers...

So I assume this is still going? Nothing a quick google wouldnt have found so far. Did they say if the Everest will have 7 seats?

All you missed was a bunch of wooden yanks reading from tele prompters.... I got to see a glimpse of falcon which is all I really cared about. Just wish they showed more but understand they can't.

I thought it was a great presentation, the Falcon snippet was exactly what i expected and the Mustang announcement was never going to reveal details when the big launch is early next year in the US.

Some exciting new models and a realistic future for the brand, the only thing i didn't like was many slides showed Ford in sports (AFL, Surfing, Ect..) but nothing of motorsport, the brands involvement in V8SC is very important to me and many others, i hope they realize that.

i don't even think i saw anything of the falcon, maybe the grill, and at first i just thought that was a mondeo, they said renders but instead it was a dark flashy whatever that didn't show anything.

dissapointed.

well that's 1hr 20mins of my life i will never get back. Other than Everest, not 1 thing we didn't know.

From that pathetic attempt at the glimpse of Falcon, I bet my bottom dollar it doesn't eventuate.

The Mondeo Wagon looked awesome, but they brought in a Left hand Drive version, so obviously its still some time off before it arrives ion Australia.

Ford you have officially lost me as a customer today

It is all very exciting, but still very said Falcon & Australian Manufacturing is not a part of it.
Also, excepting ALLOT more of the 2014 Falcon to be shown or said. Why did they even bother with it at all?? They didn't even put a Falcon in the picture of the cars at the end (Territory was there). It is not 2016 yet Ford!!!

great another SUV to overtake because the 5 ft dumba** inside is taking the kids somewhere and can't see past the dash... or can't see the speed signs because they are now lower than the SUVs on the road
