If Ford does drop the V8 from the production car, that won't be a problem. They'll still be able to compete. There's no plans to drop the V8 from the FPV performance variants, and besides the racing V8 is not the same as the production V8. V8 Supercar is hardly a production based catagory any more.
As to the Falcon still being around in 2012. There's no plans to drop it. But lets just say that I wouldn't bet the house on it surviving beyond that time. My feeling is that it is possible that the Falcon name will survive as a badge engineered and Australianised Mondeo or Taurus rather than a separate fully-Australian RWD independent lineup.
