As some people might know, Ford no longer produces cars in Australia. As a previous Falcon owner, this made me pretty upset.

I used to own a 700+hp FG G6ET Falcon that has it's own thread on here somewhere. It may well have been the fastest car in a straight line, on this very forum, having run dozens of 10 second passes.

EDIT: https://forums.finalgear.com/post-your-car/more-ford-horsepower-51595/

Short story of that car was that I needed to sell to help get myself into the property market here in Sydney. With that being gone for a while and with the impeding closure of the Ford Australia plant, I decided to do what is right and buy one of the last ones.

From a drivetrain point of view, car is identical to my previous car. 4 litre turbo straight six making 270kw and 533nm of torque.
Interior is almost identical as well, the difference being Ford introducing SYNC 2 to the FGX.
Only real difference to the car is the appearance.

In memory of the old car

Never thought I'd see an "angry" version of the Ford Fusion face, but it looks really good. Enjoy your car!

"Angry Fusion" is the best description.:lol:
 
From first glance I actually thought it was a China spec Taurus and got really confused. But congrats! That seems like an awesome Ford.
 
Why they never built these for the US market I'll never understand. I'd love to have one as a driver/fun car.

Congratulations on your purchase! Will we see 10s from this one as well?

No mods for a while as I have a lot coming up in the next 6-12 months but eventually, it will be modded to go for a 9 second pass.
 
The old one looked like a previous gen Mondeo and the new one looks like a current Mondeo. :p

Always liked the Australian Fords. Shame we don't get them here.
