have been a Ford boy all my life, but didnt stop me from owning a couple holdens in my time. In the end comes down to what you want and whats available.

If a new car was on the agenda, would be a Ford, either XR6T or XR8. To me its a better built car and looks better.

As for the I6 debate, rumours were flying around that falcon would become a front wheel drive v6 in the next model update. As far as i know that got scrapped and the I6 will remain, but who really knows. The new 5L will be something special if it happens. Only time will tell

you blokes make me laugh here we are on a holden site where you all seem to love fpvs.

I have a f6 ute and a lj torana which is ####ing quick I always thought the torry would smash everything and sorta did when compared to hsvs and older fords, But gotta say the tornado ute smashes the torry and we all know is quicker than a 317 maloo ute, Just.

throw 3k into it and she'll make about 300 kws at the wheels.

So just buy turbo 6's in the future.

We all make mistakes

i do prefer the 90's model commodores opposed to the falcons, but as time goes on fords are beginning to s*** all over holdens as much as everyone hates to say it. my best mates dad has been through a vt,vy and vz clubby and purchased a gt falcon about a year ago. he said he would rather the gt than those 3 put together...

Get a trough for the dribblers.

My mates uncles brothers best mates dad said his HSV was heaps hektic. True story.

Fact is, they're almost identical. Get over it and move on.
