Argh! This is tough.

I like EB/ED's and I like EL's...

Id say EB/ED for the more sportier look (when done up) and EL's for comfort.

I've noticed a bit of trend here,,most of us voted for the car we own but most have said they like the ed over the others,,what is it about them that makes them so popular.
i like the look and the interior.

and i must say to those who knock the ea,just remember they were a style and design like no other and the main problem was they were released to early.

and also remember if they hadn't made the ea we'd still be driving butter box xf's.

Default EL XRs you cant go go past them

I have to say that the EL XRs are one of the nicest models ford Aus has unleashed onto the nation no matter what angle you look at it. Mind you colour makes all the difference.

Second That BestXr8, I will be the first admit im prob a bit bias but you get that. I find the looks of the EL xr's to be timeless and the grunt of the series 2 xr8's is still more than enough to feel competetive against new model cars at the lights. Next to the EL xr's i would prob have to say EF Falcon would be my second pref, them headlights are sex.

EL fairmont has been the nicest eseries i have enjoyed, ghia's are ok but i'm bias because my el fairmont was and still is MAD.

if you hang around frankston way it's number plate is FRDMSL (ford muscle) on a heritage green el fairmont.
