Best looking Falcon / Commodore combo?

[BENT_8]

I was only thinking something similar to this the other day.

I was more interested in entry level than hero model though.
Straight off the floor bog stock, what looks the best from both camps from all era's.

For me, BF2 XT and VZ Exec.

Hero models

For me, XW/XB GT and VK SS/VL Calais 5.0/3.0T

[Chopped]

Early -
XR GT
HK Monaro

Modern -
BF GT
VE HSV Series 1

Wildcard -
AU TE50
VF GTS

EDIT : The more I think about all of the different models, the more I get sad that it's coming to an end.
RIP Aussie cars : (

[Rastas]

Best looking falcon to me was the car that actually outsold its commodore rival, the EF.

Best commodore hmmm, maybe the group A VL .

[Dash_XR]

Game over.

(without the scoop of course)

Commodore

Seems a few "worst" have been made so i'll give my 2 cents;

Ford : AU (Xr versions slightly better, but still woefu!l)
Holden : VN (just really, really bad!)

[The FOMOCO]

ford ford no holden crap

[Coyote mk3]

EL Xr and EL Gt

And VX clubsport.

I noticed I'm the only one to vote e series and vt/vx

[Rob 351]

XB GT Coupe & VK SS Group A.

[danzvtil]

tough question.
Dunno why but i always look twice at a nicely kept VZ Calais, its got that nice understated look with the wide spoke alloys.

sorry had too

Should read VN worst, not VT but it's slim...

[Dash_XR]

VN/VP is definitely the worst commodore. Not sure about ford.

My brother has a wb statesman ,not a bad looking old dear and as far as fords go well i had a 78 ltd with the lovely grill ,top old car too ,as far as the newer ones go i like the new fg utes ,love one in bionic blue

[CoupeKing]

Love XY to XB, sedan or hardtop. Too many colour combinations to pick a winner.

Black and white XU1 or an A9X, want.

Have always liked the Aesthetics of a BA, everything in proportion.

Worst Commodore, that ugly VS GTRS...if there was ever an antidote for Viagra on wheels, that car is it.

[malazn mafia]

EF Fairmont, pristine condition
VT Commodore SS, original wheels and kit

[mik]

To many good looking fords to choose from, for me, top would be XYGT, XRGT, later series muscle models onward all looked good .......... G6 models probably best prestige model for me , and very underated imo.
Only a few holdens I like, funnily enough all Monaro's hg/ hx/vz , other than that never really been a commy fan, but the latest model I much prefer to the ve .

[HULK_I6T]

If you like the monaro then you have to like the VT commodore

[Angeldust]

my VZ wins

[Franco Cozzo]

My favorite Falcon:



Favorite Commodore:

[GTENVY]

XB Coupe all the way for me Falcon wise.

Commodore wise...... probably the VK but definitely nothing in the nineties, VN/VP all look too busy, VR/VS was too bland especially that interior.. YUCK!
VT onwards never did it for me.

Modern era

Falcon: ED XR's, EF-EL XR's - and they sold to prove it
Commodore: Adventra wagon!

Days of Yore

XW-Y GS
HQ SS when the Commodore was not even a sparkle in GMH's eye...

[***VX*R8***]

NEWER: FG FPV GT-E/F6-E and HSV GTO Coupe
OLDER: XB GT and HQ 2dr GTS Monaro

[MercuryT]

Speaking of "worst", I saw another Falcon GT R Spec today - I like the GT look (wish I could afford one!), but this model looks so tacky IMHO.

Awful red alloys are the main issue, and red panel on rear looks awful - fix those two, wouldn't cost much, and it would look so much better.

Not sure Monaro fits under the criteria, but I would change my post ^^ if so!

I actually think Monaros look fantastic on the road, Holden did a great job there, and I really like the VE SS Sportswagons in a nice colour/wheel combo....

XA XB XC and VY-VZ for me

[Ryan]

Best Commodore (s): VL and VZ. Not biased at all.

Best Falcon (s): XR and FG.

Worst Commodore (s): VN and VP.

Worst Falcon (s): XF and EA.

[Cuyper]

Wow totally amazed by the VN VP hate. I wonder why that is, very popular cars on the other side of the fence, probably the most popular models. The VN group A will be for all time the most collectable and most expensive Commodore you can be 100% on that one.

Maybe that era just shows up the Ford Holden rivalry the most and hence the anti VN sentiment. I had a VN once, I wish I still had it, sure it had quite a bit of body flex and was pretty hard to drive straight in the rain and nearly chucked you off the highway every time you went to avoid a kangaroo. But I could say the same about almost every commodore and falcon Ive ever driven, still the VN was a sexual looking car imho!.

I own a VH now as as club car and its "pretty" I guess but doesn't have the flowing geometric type lines of the VN. If you suffer from OCD and need all your lines to make sense the VN looks good lol. If you are talking best lines of any car from any make in Australia of all time, HQ Sedan... For sure! The thing is built like a curvy woman and everything on it is perfect, flawless design on the HQ. XR/XY isn't too far behind in a non curvy way.

[Mongoose]

EL and VS for best looking. no one is yet to mention the vr/vs here I wonder why?

[Cuyper]

Well the VS and EL aren't the original model of their shape or much different at all so I'd say everyone referring to EA and VN refers to them too. VS can carry off white paint better than any other Commodore though, I'll give it that.

The speed alert device in the VS's was very cool. The last word in ever having to take your eyes off the road.
