Agreed Dave. But appreciation comes in all forms.

No Dave, the reason it is rare is that few of them were made and EVERYBODY wanted one but only those with buckets of money could afford them.

How many times has your Fusion steering failed? We had to replace our complete rack and electrical components twice in 123,000 miles- actually three times when the dealer repair failed in one day. Found On Road Dead indeed.

No, never was. A Mercedes Benz 6.3 will show it a clean pair of tail lights.
And it’s pace has always got to be defined as ‘fastest 4 door”

Over rated then, over priced now. Think of the Euro classics or American muscle you could get for the price of a tarted up Fairmont.

Yes, unfortunately the US leadership did their level best to utterly ruin Australian car manufacturing, just like they’re doing to American CAR manufacturing. I own the modern version of this Falcon, a Fusion Sport with a twin turbo V6 and AWD that I have installed a few performance upgrades and a 93 octane tune that takes it to over 400hp, and it absolutely breaks my heart that I’ll have to look at a “foreign” car company to replace it when the time comes.
The folks down under had several decades of really cool, locally built fast 4 doors to choose from, but those days are gone, probably forever. But I’m sure the Germans or the Japanese will be more than happy to take our money. Heck, even the Koreans are making some pretty cool cars these days, so sad Americans would rather have an SUV that accelerates like an economy car and handles worse, while getting comparatively poor fuel economy. Just sad.

Fewer made Dave. I love American MOPARs but they are like backsides, everybody has one. It’s all about real rarity and provenance and old XY finds like this are the proverbial rocking horse faeces.
