Love the current falcon advert!

Driver could of had a shave.

Still to conservative for what they have on offer in the stable,none the less a step ahead of the last add.

I just love that they actually went out of their way to call it a Falcon. Most of their ads lately have said XR, G-Series, FPV range, Falcon Ute. Never just Falcon.

Think about it, when was the last time a Ford commercial took pride in calling it a Falcon.

The one thing thats saves the ad is the car itself, its beautiful.

50 years is a marketers dream, you cant buy that history and reputation. And here we get the same old by-the-numbers Ford ad, with a choice of soundtrack to cure insomnia.

Honestly if Ford themself dont appear to really care about this 50 year anniversary, why should the public?

When I first saw the ad, I actually thought for a moment they were sarcastic clapping as in "yeah, yeah, big deal". At the end of the ad I was the one wanting to sarcastic clap.

I saw the ad the other night and it made me feel good. Then I realised that I'm not the target audience for this campaign. You'll pry a set of Falcon car keys from my cold dead hands so FoA doesn't have to win me over. I think something a little less understated and more confident would help bring in new blood instead of stroking the egos of people who already drive Fords.

FG II is new(ish) but not in the same vein.

Agreed, i believe the motor updates and the new FPv range realy helped them and the Ad topped it all off.
I slightly remember the original Ad for the series 1 AU and if you look back at it now, it too explained everything beneficial about the car, i believe it was also a solid Ad.

seems more like a Honda ad to me. well done, but they seem to be aiming more at the oldies

Problem with your comment is you're in the minor sector of people dis-liking!! Most thought it was either good or great...

I think it is a great add & just have is needed!!

What ever happened to showcasing the car itself and what it can do and such?

Meh, way better than the Mazda ads for sure

[xrfalcon]

Maybe they should try this one again........

The add is great IMO...

It is current (people don't care about Falcons from 10, 20, 30 etc years ago), and the G6ET looks awesome. The image the commercial puts forward is that the current Falcon is a winnder and looks GREAT.

I like it

[davids_gxl]

The add is good.to the point in 30 secs.
