Ford Falcon vs. Holden Commodore SS

Some Austrailian cars from Frod err... Ford and GM... :)

commmmmmmmmooooonnnnnnn.....

I would say the SS...a 350 hp LS1 in a sedan...what a sleeper:) you have to like it.

Here are some links for info:

That's for the SS, the "King of the concrete jungle."

And that's for the Falcon XR8. :)

Just to spice things up a bit...

I think the Ford Falcon would have to be the better car, with fresher styling, better handling and more reliabilty overall It seems a better deal to me. The XR models look great and the six is well ahead of the commodores, The XR-8 was tested by Motor magazine in Australia and It was quicker that the SS around the Famous Phillip Island track. (home of the Australian World Motorcycle Grand Prix). Go the Falcon :cool: .

HSV...nuff said. :) BTW, Tickford also does stuff for the inline 6 aswell as the V8 right?

livin here, i know these cars
the XR6 ( a straight 6) is faster than the XR8 the V8 off teh line
the hsv kicks the ford arse in looks and performance

my old 1971 ford falcon XY GTHO phase 3, worth around 50 grand (us) i rekon is heaps better, powerd by a 289 windsor, and reachin over 140 miles, id rather it ;)
