I just got back from vacation in florida. While i was down there i got to test a couple cars from all over the world, mostly I4's. But then i saw the car i have wanted since i 1st found out about in 2001. The 5.4L Ford Falcon. This car is amazing. Even though it was really hard to shift left handed, it was fast as hell. plus they are adding a KB/or Eaton supercharger in 2 more years. they really need to beef up mustangs, and bring this car over here. these cars are amazing and surpass the mustang on everything. there are ACTUAL options on it too, not just "My color" and "interior upgrade packages"

I agree that it would be awesome to have the Falcon over here. I'm gonna be needing a good 4 door car once my GT is paid off.........and I wouldn't hessitate to go with the 5.4 GT-P if it was available at a local dealership. But, we do have to realize that Ford doesn't sell the Mustang down under. And from talkin to some folks from down there, I can tell you that ppl are paying crazy money (like $100K+) to get their hands on an 05+GT. So I guess we shouldn't complain too much.

The rear portion of the car isn't nearly as sporty as, say, a Mustang.......but I think they are plenty sporty for a 4 door car:
