    ...........and no way, this car should be a Transformer.

    One of my Aunt's had a Falcon ages ago, but she still has her pictures. :lol

    i'm confused as hell. so they're making a ford falcon-based robot for FOC. are they keeping it an earth vehicle or making it into a cybertronian car that resembles the falcon?

    Buy the looks of it, news.com.au jumped the gun.
    NIBMRatchet posted a source from carsguide.com.au that conflicts with the initial report and states that it is specifically concept art.

    It's apparently not part of the game, just cross-promo artwork capitalising on the game release.
    Guaranteed earth mode.

    Yeah, sorry about that. My bad for not doing a proper search. I just didn't quite understand what they were talking about and immediately jumped the gun too. The point of this is just to vote of Ford Australia's facebook page.

    The final votes will be sent off to High Moon Studios to be turned into a concept art.

    It'd be nice if they could somehow do a DLC for this. But I have to ask, why a Ford??? :peoples:

    Yeah they really blew their chance already,,,

    In 2000 they could have released the Millenium Falcon.

    Blame government regulations. That's why rear wheel drive cars are being phased out in America. I'm sure Ford would LOVE to sell that here.

    Well, it's been decided and the vote results have been sent through.

    The car is going to be an Autobot, it will end up being a Falcon XR6 Turbo Sedan, coloured in Ford blue, and will be named Falcatron.

    The concept art will be ready in a couple of weeks.
