Re-engineering falcon for FWD would be a massive expense.. not just in engineering but re-tooling the plant too.

Short term yeah it would cost, long term you would make it back ten fold.

Think of it, one global car, for all countries, and apparently all conditions; sounds peachy /sarcasm

The only thing you would then need to engineer for each country would be ride, and even then some global cars dont even bother with that.

I have driven the current mustang V6, poo to say the least, aswell as the ST220 V6, which is a mile better. But I am still skeptical about either in falcon.

And then lets stop thinking about the Falcon, what about the Territory? It will be like the Mazda CX7, under powered and using more fuel than it should be.

BTW, how freakin fast is this thread moving...jeez!
