Ford Grunt

When was the last time Ford built a decent looking base model Falcon, that looked good by a simple lowering of the front and rear and a nice set of wheels?

I reakon the XD Falcon GL was the last decent looking base model, and by far the meanest.

No your not, a would have to agree the front end of the EF was one of the nicest shapes. Really done well with the integrated front bumper and the air ducts on each side.

EA-ED still the purest design. I like em.

Just don't go sticking bloody wings and body kits on them (Tickford XR gear excluded).

I'll vote for the XD.

Lowered with some nice wheels, it looks great.

But, without those mods, it looks like a boring box.

Sure most of the base model falcons look tuff with no mods apart from some lowering and mags.
The Au's with a differant grill and some nice wheels look good.
The EA-ED's look sweet with nothing but some mags and lowered.
To be honest I can't think of a model of falcon that I didn't like the look off if it was lowered and fitted with mags. Thats why I love Falcons the fact that they look tuff with out the body kit.
Commies on the otherhand look boring but do suit a body kit better than the falcons.

Am I allowed to vote the for the EF? LOL

My car is simply lowered front and rear, with some wheels... don't feel the need to do too much more to it personally. I also like the EL of course, similar shape...

My two cents worth.... Tim
