Trusty — This is a classic vehicle of the experimental 80's era. Sure it has a unique boxy shape but that is what makes it a stand out and special model in the Falcon range over the years. Hang on performance, rolller coaster ride, and exceptional duco that changes color and gloss effect in time.Cheap to buy, mileage that stands still, maintenance almost non existent (relative to cars life)and offers an exhillerating driving experience. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Steady cruiser all day long Cons: fuel mostly, stick to the gas |

Great Car For What I Paid For It. Its Awesome To Cruise Around In Such A Classic! — Pretty good quality, some things are not straight. (its American). Its got a 4 cylinder (88HP) so its pathetic getting around. So far I've only repaired the turn signal, but its only got about 60k. Its a great little car, only paid $800 (used) for it. Its awesome to have a such a unique car at my age, and its affordable too. Primary Use: Family transportation Pros: Cheap to own/maintain, pretty decent MPG, unique. Cons: Slow/guttless, American, big, not the pretty-est. |

Would Rather Be Driving A Titleist! — Great value large size car considering all the features. Ideal work or family car. Wouldn't get a BMW or Mercedes with all the equipment for even double the price. 5 star safety rating is very reasurring when driving. Great on long drives. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Comfortable and reliable Cons: It's a Ford |

Ford Fairmont - Family Car — Sooo reliable. Although a little hungry on gas, I really like this car! It's so solid and smooth to drive - a real cruise mobile. Heaps of room inside, comfy seats and great visibility. It's great to drive, and sits on the road with great stability :-) Won't part with her till I have to. Pros: Solid, reliable, roomy, smooth to drive Cons: Abit hungry on gas, with the cost of petrol these days. |

Very Nice Cruiser — My car is a real head turner, i love the leather interior, comfort, performance and handling plus all the gizmos. It does use heaps of fuel but only if you flog it! when driving sedateley the fuel consumption is ok. It has the 4.0 ltr VCT (varial cam timimg) engine from the xr6 which at the time was said to be the pinacle of 6 cylinder engines. It delivers sufficient power and torque and has an LSD (limited slip diff) which is very fun and handy for drifing :):) Pros: handling, interior, exterior, comfort Cons: Does chew a bit of fuel |

Is Currently On Bricks — Well... First and foremost, I received one of these in the stead of an $800 debt. I don't really know how well these things do run when in 'proper' shape, as this thing CAN technically drive... but shakes around violently whilst moving and makes very scary noises. It also doesn't really go above 70 mph. and takes about a 40-50 sec to get to 60 mph from 0. So this vehicle is officially 'retired' for the moment. I Might get someone to fix it up later... Pros: Cool Retro-Style Cons: dingey interior, beat-up exterior, is a crappy car (at the moment) |

Cons:
i hate the color as it is orange with white stripes down the side |
