I didn't know there was a Falcon Titanium ...

As for what it's missing? I can get these features on a Mondeo Titanium but not on the G6E:

Smart key entry
Keyless start
Remote start
Automatic folding wing mirrors
Blind spot monitor
Lane keeping assistance
Active City Stop
Auto up/down all windows
Cross traffic alert
Park assist
Adaptive cruise control
Panoramic sunroof
Heated seats front and rear
10-way power adjustable front passenger seat

Given the similarity in price, I see no reason why I should buy a G6E instead of a Mondeo Titanium. I think most buyers who isn't fussed about where the car is built will feel the same.

Hmm, I'm not trying to be rude here but with all that extra tech, why would you want to drive at all these days... just hire a chauffeur and sip your drink in the back seat !

I'm sorry but a competent driver doesn't need any of that stuff to improve their driving skills, though I will admit Keyless start is a nice feature.

I really think they are trying to condition us drivers to be comfortable with the introduction of driver-less cars very soon !

No thanks, gimme power steering, aircon and my 6-stacker CD and I'm happy as you know what.
