[SlickHolden]

I hate purple as a color really, But if someone else likes it that's up to them i won't change there mind. It's a popular color to.

[SlickHolden]

check out menace, and keep in mind those CGI's are darker than the real thing. the lighter bits there are probably a more accurate depiction of the real colour

Would anyone agree if i said that Ford is relying too much on customer feedback? They referred to it for the BA MkII upgrade and Now the BF.
I mean I bet the job theyve done on the guts of the car will be brilliant, but the average buyer wont really differentiate the BF from the BA. It isnt a bad thing at all that it looks similiar to a BA, although i was looking forward to a change, not necessarily sheetmetal but some more creativity with the front and rear plastic. Three years + of relatively the same really grows on you.

[fpv_gtho]

Well think of the alternative. The AU had absolutely no buyer feedback for it or anything and it was something that ended up costing them about 20K sales a year from when it first went on sale to when it was finished.

The AU was a drastic change though incorporating Ford's 'edge' style theme, so it was nothing like the previous model. I just wanted to see some creativity with the bumpers...kind of like the change from VYII to VZ Commodore front plastic. Even without the new bonnet and lights on the VZ the bumber replacement would have changed the look of the car. From what Ive seen the BF front still follows the same theme as the BA...in my opinion not enough has changed.

[fpv_gtho]

Well the AU could still have been drastically different had Ford actually pulled random people from the public and asked their opinion of whatever the current designs were. Theyre doing that right now for the Orion Falcon due at the end of 2007, and thats another all new update.

Realistically, Ford have already spent too much than they needed to on the BA and Territory. You cant always expect them to be bringing out drastically changed models, when the public response likes what theyre given atm.

True...Do you give your support to a fusion themed face on an Aussie Falcon?

[fpv_gtho]

fusion themed face on an Aussie Falcon?

Huh??

[Mystikal]

At Fusions launch it was said that the 2007 Aussie Falcon would bear a resembleance to the Fusion, although they would take it a step further.
