For me it would have to be

1) EL XR8 with full kit
2) T3 TS50 or TE50
3) XE ESP with the 5.8

mine are
1) AU-BF series. yes i included the AUs as they look alright in my book.
2) FG series
3 ) XW-XY series . i'm just gunna say it!! the XW front end looks better then the XYs front in my opinion. everyone says phase 3 but i still reckon the XW looked better
4)XR XT series
5) EA- EB series. thou i like the driving the latter E series to the older EAs and EBs i think the first two of the series look better.
6 ) XF-XG sedans and utes. dont care if there wasnt an 8 avalible with them.
XG front on the XF sedans look sweet!!
7) what the hell they all look great. over 50 years of a car that refuses too die easily!!! only think that will kill it is ford itself.

1-AU LTD...lashings of chrome in a 'black out world'
2-XD Fairmont Ghia...the whole 'D' line looked tough.
3-P6 LTD/ZH Marquis...big,bold and unmistakably Ford.
4-XF S-Pak sedan series 2...in bright red looked stunning in the showroom.
5-AU Forte...nothing like it on the road at the time,police spec looked sinister.
My 10cent's worth!

Classic... not plastic. Only someone under 30 could possibly suggest anything other than the XA, XB and XC... and I own a very tidy AU II 75th but it's nothing on the XC in pieces in the shed.

yeah cause they didn,t have to fix em when there broke.

XA to XC nice , espesialy the coupes. XD to XF(ugle cars built in this era, holden included), fail . EA to AU fail (in looks) AU to FG sports models = very nice.

its an interesting thread cause car manufactures don,t have the guts to make something different looking, but chrysler do. EI, when i see the V8 races i have trouble telling the diffrent car brands.

Honestly how anyone can't class the current FG GT-P 335 as the best looking Falcon ever period are mad ... a party explodes in my underwear every time I see one of those things on the road.
