I think the poll is well and truly barking up the wrong tree. It'll be more like the VN and XY which are remembered most, for the longest.

Really like the FG/VE generation. The VE Commodore is the first time I've ever considered a Holden quite sexy in design.

Then there's the FG. Soon as it was released in 2008, I wanted my hands on it! Finally bought one last year and haven't looked back since.

B series Falcon

VE Commo

BF Typhoon front end gets my vote for best angle of the B series!

FG and especially VF don't really do much for me looks wise, great cars for respective makers though....

I always liked the look of the VK Commodore.

Best looking Falcon was either the XM/XP two door or the XW/XY four door.

Guy at high school had a VB with a body kit, looked quite good.. What is wrong with the design of the EA, they were really well integrated (had a EA ghia)

Best looking FORD would be the XC GXL.

Silly poll sorry, asking opinion on "X series Falcon vs..." - what, everything from a 1960 XK to a 1987 XF? Give me a break...

FWIW, all Falcons looked better than the equivalent Holdens of the time except for AU vs VT, that is the exception to the rule!

As for Holden, don't have a fav because I don't drool over them as with my Ford's, there're all the same to me.

Early Ford was the XA, and later Fords the AU.


Early Holden was the HT, and really don't go for much of the later Holdens except a ~02 Monaro.

VZ series still remains my favourite especially the Senator, Maloo and Calais models

FG series hands down. BA/F would be next in line.

if we are keeping it to the combo that were in direct competition at a given time then the BF vs VZ
