2008 Orion Falcon - First Pictures
[B][SIZE="5"][CENTER][I]2008 Orion Falcon?[/I][/CENTER][/SIZE][/B]
These are likely the first shots of the long anticipated Orion Falcon. They were taken from a distance, so nobody can say for sure whether it is or isn't. However, I'm 99% sure this is a Falcon.
A couple of pieces of evidence point to it being a Falcon. Firstly, it was taken in the Victorian bushland (Ford's engineering base is in Victoria). Also, the size of the vehicle indicates Falcon.
The car has a slightly rising belt line, as does the VE Commodore. The front overhang also looks a little shorter, but I can't be sure without a better shot. Other than that, the proportions look similar to the current Falcon. It wouldn't be a current bodied mule, because they have made an effort to disguise it.
Overall, it doesn't tell us too much - but if these are in fact shots of Ford's 2008 Falcon in prototype form, then it is quite newsworthy.
