Awesome thanks.

I'm interested how Aaron's new GT gets more attention than the original.

To me it isn't close!!! Give me the original please

Ive always wanted a Yello ochre HO, but any nice XW or XY GT would do.

The rear wheels wheels (Don't fit at all) ridiculously small but charming too....ha

The ones built by Ford, all aluminum, dohc, V8, 450hp FORD motor. Check your facts.
Some M4s were powered by radial motors too, depends who built them.
Cold humble pie for you. Enjoy!

Thought hot hatch guys were passionate on them.

Going on the theme of hot hatchs and I do like these very much as well to be in the garage :

Focus RS
Sierra Cosworth
Capri RS3100

Someone was stuffing a Ford GAA tank motor into a 69 Mustang. Not sure how it ended up.

you might be fella but from where i sit its poms 2-0 so far.All very well to protest about looks but looks really dont matter when it comes to a road that matters.

[arronm]

Those sierras were great in 87.

Ah yep.....i was just commenting on the pic not that it couldn't be fixed!

This is my 7 car list, one for each day of the week.

2005 Ford GT – red with white stripes. I just love the exotic design combined with a bullet proof engine.

2002 T3 TS50 – Narooma blue automatic with premium sound, Brembo brakes and blue leather trim. I had a T3, still wish I had it.

2016 XR6 Sprint – Kinetic blue. The last and best of the inline 6 in a stealthy suit.

2014 FPV GT-F – Octane with black stripes and automatic. The last GT and the most powerful Falcon.

2014 FG MK II XR6 Turbo Ute – Emperor Red automatic with luxury pack. I love Falcon utes, this being a sweet spot in spec in my opinion.

2020 F-150 XLT – Single cab with the long bed in Race Red and optioned with the 5.0 V8. This would be my ultimate work ute.

2020 Mustang GT500 – in Race Red with white stripes and base spec, I don’t like the carbon track pack wheels and spoiler. The ultimate Mustang to date.

I was in the ol mindset of arronm long ago.
I get where he's coming from but you have to give credit where its due.
I did own 2 Laser S's from new - KA was that much fun I went into a KB next.
They are no where near the 2 I listed in terms of performance but tight twisty great roads you were up anything with bigger capacity corner entrys etc obviously lose on the straights.
Seirras would own any Falcon back in the day easily and Focus RS's - absolute go kart weapons.
I have no care what my mates or anyone would think if I had them in my ownership

[roddy1960]

Ah , the XC Cobra ....Don't they photograph well . Don't drive too bad either and given they were one of the last Falcons to run the hardtop profile they will always hold a special place for many of us .

Was it 250 were built ? I guess there were a few replicated though after the originals .

On replicas..Here's a favourite of mine and I'm unashamedly an XY fan and the same for Wild Violet . Non genuine or not I'd have this any time .

Yum, thanks.

[MercuryT]

Just saw what must be a replica Shelby GT350R.

Looked awesome - I'm guessing lots of money spent on getting spare parts etc

[Ben73]

Out of the original list I'd say either Mustang GT or FPV Sprint.

If money was no object I couldn't settle on one. I'd go GT40, Black Sprint, Mustang Bullitt and an F150 Raptor

You're thinking of the ford Ka
Now that is an embarrassment not only to the owner but ford themselves.

Well mate.

You need to settle on one : )

[MercuryT]

Mine is AC Cobra - dark blue and white.

GT40 original (gulf colours) - New ones not interested.

[MercuryT]

The one from "Bad Boys" movie?

I want that in my non-existent garage! ha
