They tried. The bosses in the US didn't let them.

As an Australian I come back and watch holden and falcon videos and nearly cry cause I miss them so much.

Beautiful. I'll take two.

Auston Cly yeah you guys would love it

The s550 mustang front end has a strong resemblance to this. Looks really good.

I want a W1, GTS 430 (hahahaha), GT-F and the Sprint HOly grail comparison ...... and a Mustang?... that would certainly keep all those who loved the Aussie Muscle car interested and certainly entertained ...... Street, Track and Dyno!!! :)

We need this in america, great competitor with the chevy ss and srt8 charger

I wound up here after looking at Ford Fusions in America. The only modern thing we have that is somewhat comparable is the 2.7 liter twin turbo V6 AWD Ford Fusion Sport.

Impressive to say the least, thanks for the post mate. Talk about going out with a bang, what a car! Bloody shame about no more Aussie cars, I mean ferfucksakes that Falcon is an example of what we could do......along with many others that came from Ford, Chrysler and Holden. Looks like history is gonna repeat itself though as far as those three go. The Mustang is here, the Chev Camaro is likely too. The Dodge Challenger looks like coming too. Wheels magazine reckons Chrysler have given the nod to it........except Mitsubishi have the Challenger name in Australia so it will probably be called Charger. Let the good times roll.

480kw is pretty easily achieved on the turbo's. The main attraction here would be the suspension and handling.

Daniel Curtis tuning has nothing to do with it. The 6 is a much smaller engine and has a short torque range which makes it undrivable at high boost.

When’s the head to head against the W1?

@w_stanky

5 жыл бұрын

Only one way to find out... Honestly I think a fair comparison would be the GTS given the price of the cars would be about par but happy to see any comparison. They have to have one last head to head. GTS-R would be fair IMO... W1 is in its own league hence the purchase price. Could put the W1 brakes under the falcon, fix the aero and it would still come in under 170k. A XR8 Sprint with 100k spent on it would have the W1 very concerned.

We are no longer the knights who say Ni... We are now the knights who say BlastOff!!

Not only looks mean, but drives mean as well. The machine from hell......

Holy Grail Vs W1!!

Hands up who reckons this will be a appreciating muscle car in ten years .... yep nobody.... no visual presence, taxi spec interior with fat dad seats let it down. 40 grand to sort out the intercooler, suspension and exhaust.....not exactly a bargain. There is a reason Ford didn’t try to sell them at this spec level originally. It is a big ask that nobody will deem worthy of their cash.

You guys just didnt understand the video. This is the developers homage to the HO ( Handling Options ) and with only 100 built. This thing will be a superstar worth a fortune in the future if not already now. Look at the unknown XA phase 4 , worth a fortune for an unknown car. The people who buy these cars know about these cars. And they are worth even more because they were a secret from everyday normal people. As an example, look at the recent story about the last Commodore to roll off of the production line, it wasnt actually the official last commodore off of the line.That was a car that a worker at Holdens tracked and then purchased from a dealer knowing he was buying history.

Where is all the nm???

I'm hoping that when electric cars become affordable the fuel companies drop their prices to compete. I'm assuming that that's why they're wringing us dry with high prices right now, they're getting as much money as they can right now so they don't go bust when they have to charge $1/L. I would reccomend buying these Aussie icons now, because when fuel prices drop to keep people buying petrol powered cars everyone will be looking for a performance sports saloon!

Supercharged engine needs more revs for the pulley to create forced induction boost. The bigger the pulley more revs are needed to create forced induction boost. Peak torque and power comes in at much higher revs on supercharged engines. You combine high revs and forced induction supercharging and heat soaking in the engine becomes a major issue very quickly

I agree, the Falcon Sprints looked disappointing and if this is 'unofficially' a GTHO, I'd want a shaker scoop, stripes, bright colours, GTHO-style badges.. Maybe some retro-inspired wheels could work.. If Premcar played up the angle of ex-Ford engineers who were prevented from making a GTHO secretly developing it against Ford's wishes, showing up the Mustang etc, they might generate the mystique to make this a valuable car. If the badges constituted unlicensed use of a trademark, sell the car unbadged and set up midnight meetings under a bridge to slip each owner a bag of badges...

2016 Sprint - not 2015, no such thing . . .

It still looks like a standard xr8 which will kill it's prospects as a future classic.

Spend $25k on a XR6T and it will be faster than both. V8’s are the past.

Yeah nah Herrods XR8 FGX package beat the W507 and the W557 is almost as good....the 557 has 850nm of torque at the fly whereas Herrods XR8 has around 810nm at the wheels, through an auto. The 557 was Walkinshaw's answer to Herrod who could have gone harder but they wanted to protect the driveline. Herrod did more than the Holy Grail package but what they didnt do was the new manifold.

Again FORD owners want to have something special but ant make one at all, still ford FGX with a work done to it, LOL Nothing like a W1 nothing, wheres the FORD FGX GTE or even the FORD FGX GT, still thats fords best, compared to a factory HSV models no comparison, the FGX still has everything which the FG ford models had, same dash same serats same everything including the diff which needs to be fixed even when new, lol :)

And then there's the almighty F6 / XR6 T's that cost even less ...
