Another interesting observation. XFs used to be everywhere but as can be seen are not popular with the enthusiasts. They may have been the best selling car at their time but they are the most mundane Falcon model built.

I am a little surprised at the low BF numbers in the poll in relation to the newer modern BA Falcon models on wards.

Maybe we just have more BA members voting

It would have been interesting if the poll had included MKII models such as FG versus FG2, etc.

Interesting stats - if you think about total build numbers, the FGX had the lowest build count (but the highest concentration of performance/enthusiast models amongst the mix).

The highest category is FG, which spanned some 6 to 6.5 years, but had probably the 2nd lowest annual sales (by model) of any Falcon.

The AU, which did quite well in annual sales numbers, and ran for some time, and BA - which nailed it in sales volumes - I would have expected higher numbers for both of those models.
