Default Re: Has AU Falcon scared off Ford from ever doing another BOLD Falcon

Styling is very subjective and, interior aside, I actually prefer the FG Falcon's more conservative, classy styling than the VE Commodore.

Has the AU Falcon scared Ford? Maybe. But there's nothing wrong with the design of the FG. "Conservative" isn't necessarily a bad thing, and being "bold" isn't necessarily a good thing.

Incidentally, I don't like the Aston-Martin front end of the new Fusion/Mondeo. I would've preferred a more conservative, current Focus / current Mondeo / new Escape like front end. Looks far better that way. Likewise, FGII's front end has improved immeasurably over the FG I. I hope that if there is to be a further update to the FG styling, it doesn't incorporate the Aston Martin front end.
