Default What do you think is the best looking falcon?
Now that the falcon has a used by date, it's safe to say we have seen all falcons that will be made.

Lets have a poll to see what will be the best looking falcon ever to be made

No reason for a lock if we be sensible..

Even better simply vote and let's let the poll determine this.

Well - to do your poll justice - you need to include all model falcons from XK - FG and maybe separating the performance models as some models had poor looking base models but pretty looking hi- po models.

Listing them as others is sacrilege....

Out of the newer series Falcons, the BF model GT & F6's by a country mile. They have a tough look about them and you definitely notice them on the streets! The FG range is a bit soft in the tough looking department

I reckon the B series is the pinnacle of looks. Not just 'cause I own one, but they seem to "stand out" on the road. The FG is too subtle to be remembered I reckon. An E-series done right is also very nice along with the XA onwards series

Hulk, this has to be one of your worst threads ever.

What about the first 6 years?

What about sedans from '72 to '79?

Etc etc
