I voted XA mainly because of the XA GT. But I like a few:
XP coupe XW GT AU XR8 BA F6 and GT I reckon a done up EL Ghia can look good too. The falc's have a good range to choose from... |

The XR was one of the most significant design models for Ford. But the XT was better built and had the wider track front end which lasted right through to XF. XW and XY were no real improvement over XT except for power output. Their weight started to build up. XB and XC were excellent models especially compared to the Holdens of that era. The XE, with EFI six and watts link rear end, was the best handling standard vehicle package Ford ever produced until AU. The E series were never anything special except for the Tickfords (XRs). They were just too unbalanced and took a lot of work to get them to ride and handle properly. The AU is still the best package ever from Ford - BAs still have too many design and production problems to iron out before they can be serious contenders for Ford's best ever car.
PS Models that I and my immediate family have owned include XL, XM, XR, XB, XC, XE, XF, EF, AU, BA. |

Im cant vote on this one. I like to many.
I love the xw xy gt's. I would even like an xw or xy panel van one day. I have owned an XF S pack, EF 2 xr6 , AU 2 xr8 and now the BA XR8. I loved them all. They were all great cars with the usual mods. Suspension, exhaust and various go quick bits. Cheers......Kev

My favourite Falcon? Have two. Favourite "old" Falcon.. is the 1968 XR GT, Love 'em. Favourite modern day Falcon.. 1999 AU TS50. The best Falcon to date.
1968 XR GT__________________________ __ 1999 AU TS50  _  Wish I could vote for both, but I ended up voting for the AU.

Too hard to pick for me. XW, XA, XB in the old school 8's, or a BAGT in the new.

They all rock (excluding EA) but the XW GT, EL XR8 and an XC cobra are standout highlights for me.
Can't go past the XY GT as the best for me though |

Nothing is better than a mean XA coupe. Next best thing is XA and XY sedans. You can't beat old school V8 sounds.

Impossible just to stay to one. But since I own an AU. Voted for it. But as Minge said TS50. That has got to be my favourite.
XP, XB Coupe, XA GT, XC Cobra, THE HO'S, AU The XH Panel Van. Built on early "boxy looking" e series, with ef front and an AU mOTOR.

I voted XY, which, suprisingly given the amount of falcons I have owned, I have never had the priveledge of owning an xy. Maybe 1 day.
Hard to pick out any particular model, I like most falcon models but favourites include XY, XB, XE ESP, AU T series, BA/BF xr's & fpv.
