Pity Ford don't do something like this to replace the Falcon as the Mondeo is not selling at all.

Because they are just a shopping trolley ,albeit a very nice shopping trolley, the tyranny of distance and small population/market and now a backwater compared to the US , Asia and Europe means that Mondeo will likely never see an exciting range and really sporty option to put fire in the belly like the locally produced Falcon did. Don't get me wrong , the Mondeo is a well sorted out car , nice tech and all but bloody average at best for the driving buzz factor .
Somehow F/A needs to convince one of the head honcho's to whack a 2.7 l TT or something like the Fusion has to spark up the action over the current offerings . Highly doubt we'd ever have that much clout here in the backblocks. Mustang , Focus RS will be it in that regard I reckon.
