Really it should have been on the market 15 years ago
And this is why I think the later B Series and F Series Falcon will disappear more quickly,
there were fewer built and most Bs are hitting the time where expensive repairs happen.
A gearbox fails and the cost is the majority value of the car, easier to scrap and buy another.

We're gonna hit a balance point where newer Mustangs become more common on the road than FGX Falcon
