Didn’t realise how crap the FG suspension was until I threw my VF into a corner! Part from the FGX digital radio the FGX is still so 2008! But I still love my FG’s just hate the FGX! I drove an FGX and I hated it, don’t know why but my mk2 felt so much tighter and gutsy but I seriously don’t know why people would get an FGX over an VF!
Hate to say it, but same thoughts. When the rental companies stopped renting out Falcons, and I couldnt bring myself to drive a toyota camry, had no choice but to begrudgingly step into a VF2. Holden did win the final fight, I guess the cash injection from GM for the export program did really show. Its a completely different animal from the lousy billion-dollar mistake VE. Steers and drives tightly, can cop a real caning and remain composed, the transmission is as good as a ZF, and the electronic gadgetry, instrumentation and interior design are a whole generation ahead of FG. The keyless start and entry are noticeably absent from the FG, even at the top of the range..
