Re: 2017 50th Anniversary Falcon GT?

It might be like in 1982 when the last V8 rolled off the plant and never to return.
Really the only reason why Falcon is being stopped is because Ford can make better profit with cars being built out of Asia - 4 times the costs remember. CAPITALISM
After all the all built Indian FIGO sells for only $7,690.00 also add the Fusion, Fiesta, Mondeo and Endeavour to being made in India cheaper makes more PROFIT for Ford.
Remember in the 80's car import tariffs were around 43% and now they are 5% - how can locally made compete in labor costs alone let alone when the Govt makes it cheaper for imports?
At the end of the day we all wanted more choices and locally made suffers - not only Ford but everything we make, produce.... that's the FREE market everyone wants
Maybe in 2016 we will get the last 500 cars to be made turned into a Cobra???
