Google-Fu, the ancient snowflake art of knowing little, understanding less but believing anything they find on Google as the word of God.
The problem with society today, is that nobody drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.
the valiant panel vans were pretty ordinary
We had 4 or 5 of them at work
(no Drifters)
they really were just a ute with a top welded on, and poorly welded too
or were they glued on?

Not just the Vans, the sedans weren't much better...

yeah in a car that weighed 300kg lighter than anything of similar size!!! Have a bingle in one and you needed a can opener to get out.

Voted for the landau cause its the best looking Falcon of the range....mind you would prob just take a regular G6E couldn't care less about Brembo's.
That is something I wanted to raise. It's a bloody quick car as it is and for the price you simply cannot get the same performance and luxury.
“…The lies (Western slander) which well-meaning zeal has heaped round this man are disgraceful to ourselves only…How one man single-handedly, could weld warring tribes and wandering Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades….A silent great soul, one of that who cannot but be earnest. He was to kindle the world; the world’s Maker had ordered so." - Thomas Carlyle
You also get a couple of things (nothing special) that aren't available in any of the other models. The biggest problem with the G6E is besides the looks it doesn't differentiate enough with the things you get. But if that were the case if wouldn't be cheaper then the XR6T.
Also I know people complain that it doesn't have an LSD but in all seriousness just go aftermarket for one....I mean the ones you get from factory aren't much chop anyway.
Well I went with the Drifter.
I already have a turbo ute and to be honest love it. I probably enjoy driving that more than anything else, so in the spirit of what you have put on offer Tony, a F6 ute would be the most logical for me and easiest trade to make.
310kws with Brembos would do me I feel but I would sack you from the naming dept. Drifter sucks.
What is your hypothetical model for volume of such offerings?
History is a statement, the future is a question.
