I6turbo with 270 kw, 6 speed auto, 18" mags. everything you see in the pics is standard. these cars are capable of 280kmp/h from factory. also just wondering is there anyone else on here who is from australia and has a falcon.

No we don't have anything like that in the states.

Is that an affordable car or a higher end car? Is that the factory color?

every thing you see pn that car is factory. colour. wheels everything is factory. theses are about $60,000 AUS and the base model balcon is about $30,000AUS. the base model is what we use here 4 police cars because the falcon is setup for speed from factory. acceleratin isnt the best but has a fairly decent top speed from facotry. if you bought a falcon and if u got it serviced each time it would last over a million kilometers. we have taxis that have gone well over a million killometres on the original engine cause there made to last

ford has just released that next year with the new model they are goin to realease a new GTHO with a 6speed manual and a 351 V8 with 351kw so that should be good. tho they are pricy at 100,000 AUS

You posted a picture of a BF Typhoon and the rims are 19s standard.

Yes everything there is how it comes out of the factory, it is a higher end car but is only $55K new.

The new GT has 302kw (out of a BOSS motor, and no not the original Boss302 ) and the new Falcon is set to come out in April. This model dates back to 2002.
