Id love to say option 2 jpd80 but I for one am sick of hearing about the demise of the falcon etc etc. Link it into a brand or model line that is more secure and you remove this stigma that the media love to beat up on, and like it or not this does effect the brands perceived worth.
FWD/AWD Falcon is a waste of time. FWD will kill the performance models, in which IMO the Falcon name relies on (and again it just becomes a bigger...just..mondeo). AWD adds more weight and complexity for little gain, and in theory higher consumption. There has to be room for a GRWD car in the Ford empire that can cater for multiple market segments and countries. Much the same has BMW does with the 5 series for example. Im not talking about the same quality (although its not out of the question), im talking about the concept of huge build numbers lower costs and increases content quality.
