2007 Ford Falcon XT.jpg

Ford Falcon/Ford Futura (EA169). 2005–8 (prod. unknown). 4-door sedan, 5-door wagon, 2-door utility. F/R, 3984 cm³ petrol, LPG and turbo petrol (6 cyl. DOHC), 5408 cm³ (V8 SOHC 24V), 5408 cm³ (V8 DOHC 32V). Last hurrah for regular EA169 platform, with facelift keeping the car competitive with the arrival of Holden’s VE Commodore. Design meant to bridge BA and E241 ‘Orion’ series (FG moniker not coined at this time). Futura, as before, considered part of Falcon range in marketing, though no Falcon badge appeared. Six-speed ZF automobile gearbox optional on premium models. Falcon still competent, especially the XR6 Turbo, though sales dwindled because of the dated shape and a general decline for big cars due to rising fuel costs.
