Latest specials on Mk2 Falcons. Very cheap!

XF_Pilot · 13-08-2013, 04:23 PM

Hi guys,

Just thought I would alert everyone to the latest specials on Mk2 falcons from Ford. These specials are really good. Heres the deal:

- Free servicing for 3 years
- 18" wheels
- 8" premium screen
- USB/Bluetooth etc....

Sedans:
XR6 - $33,990 Drive Away
XR6 Turbo - $39,490 Drive Away

Ute:
XR6 - $30,490 Drive Away
XR6 Turbo - $34,490 Drive Away

I was pretty impressed by this, makes the new Holden commodore pricing structure seem not that impressive really. If I was in a position to buy one I would have to consider it very seriously.

Anyway just a heads up for those who are in the new car market.

Alot of car for the money compared to the 80's 90's and 2000s car prices and equitment levels.

that means a ute with manual luxury pack and hardcover for under 40k how could you beat that? simular spec wildtrack Ranger is over 60k same with all those other dualcabs

No wonder the turbo build rate has increased. Great price.

They really need to move units as this FBT crap has really made a huge dent in sales. A lot of cars waiting to be sent out to lease companies sitting on grass until they find out what the changes might mean. Or until the Libs win the election and the changes die, which seems likely.

It certainly is a great price! I think it's about $500 cheaper than at the beginning of the year which was a great price in itself. Add in free servicing for 3 years

I guess Ford are doing their best to entice Falcon buyers to upgrade to the turbo (which would have some profit margin) due to the great pricing would help Ford make a buck.

Boss, how many I6T's are the crew at Geelong making daily?

Been a pretty consistent 8 a day for a few months, but jacking up to 10-12 atm.

nstg8a · 14-08-2013, 08:45 PM

These prices have me seriously considering forgetting about fh... Only two points against it

1- the probability either prices will drop more, or a le with somehow more goodies for the same price. Fh is still 12 months away, ford will need to do some serious carrot dangling to keep fg2 selling.

2- fh....

Good. That should now prove to everyone the vehicles they're currently using are more than sufficient for their needs and don't require unnecessary consumption and burning through the country's tax dollars. New car's have now proven necessary and a waste of resources.

The elephant in the room is the auto industry simply isn't viable without the support of every shoulder and the blood of every citizen, and we're all expected to show compassion/give financial aid. This country could very well be right wing driven in a month or so. These companies need to be able to support themselves which they can't. Therefore they have no place in this country and todays world.

Why we're still supporting these local companies I do not understand from a government perspective. Hate to say it but it really is just putting off the inevitable with a lot of money burnt. Sounds beyond harsh but it is a situation where people need to accept swallowing the pill.

very attractive offers. A New XR6T would be a great car to own at that price.

Screws anyone who has purchased one recently and wants to sell...

Well they decided to buy the car which loses half its value in 6 months, as if you would buy a new Falcon then sell it 6 months later and complain about resell value.

That depreciation nullifies all viability for most of us who apparently get a fair go and don't. But try for a minute to imagine 30% of your paycheck is going to the government. Most people would rather it go into a "business expense" and this recent tax crackdown has forced them to actually prove a "business expense" is actually a business expense. As expected it's proven what it's always proven, that all those "ivory backscratchers" are just sitting on grass at the moment.

There's now no longer 40 billion for them to play around with so they find themselves making the same decisions we all have to. Holding on to perfectly fine 2-3yr old+ vehicles.

Perfectly fine, instead of that tax going into their own leather seats and FPV's it can go into roads and parks and all that just like ours does.

That's exactly what I thought reading this, it's as though some people seem to have the attitude it's a moral right of theirs or something...

But it's ok they're completely "unaware" they're responsible for over 40 billion an annum. She be right mate.

Screws anyone who bought one recently who might want in on that free servicing.... If that's true.

Edit.

**PepeLePew** · 13-08-2013, 08:52 PM

Can we keep this to a discussion of the discount on these models and not turn it into another FBT and government assistance debate please. It's been done to death.

Trump · 13-08-2013, 09:28 PM

Is that price inclusive of the full luxury pack (leather, sound, 19" wheels)?

Hally · 14-08-2013, 08:04 AM

Was offered a XR6T ute (manual, premium paint) for $32,700 drive away by Sunbury Ford two weeks ago. Minus $400 if I went for a white one.

Also offered a January built black XR6 sedan (auto) for $28,000 drive away.

Both included the 3 year servicing deal.

No. Cloth interior and 18" wheels. Not sure about the sound, but colour screen
is included.

Reverse sensors and camera installed aftermarket?

Have to be. You cant get them factory fitted on a ute.

Yeah. I should have been clearer - how did they fit the screen, was it a rear view mirror job?

Watch for those to become standard on Falcon, if not already the case...

Pretty sure XT has the sensors, but still needs the colour screen.

Although maybe they wont bother with an XT model for 2014

I meant reversing camera and tech pack in general will probably become standard to narrow the gap with VF ...

I believe camera is on all but XT (for obvious reasons).

duaned · 14-08-2013, 10:21 AM

if that price included leather I would be in line at the dealer to upgrade to one!

I'd wager that they will run the FG2 out next year at those prices (or better)
with leather and a couple of other bells/whistles.
