Best Answer

Ford is the better option because they have the most legendary, most valuable classic vehicles from the past, particularly falcon GT's from the late sixties and early seventies, the XY GT HO was the quickest four door car in 1971 too. Ford V8 Supercar drivers show good sportsman ship and drivers on the public road don't show off like Holden drivers try doing. The Ford Falcon XR6 turbo 4L six cylinder is quicker and more powerful than Holden's SS V8 5.7L in a drag even when the Ford is a model or two older. As for Ford V8's vs Holden V8's the FORD 5.4L Boss engine is a better and more powerful engine according to the 2004 car review testing, which compared a BA XR8 falcon with a VY SS Holden. The new HSV 6.0L VE V8 is slower than the Ford FG XR6 Turbo 4.0L. The Holden VE cost GMH a billion dollars to test, design, etc, but was still considered not quite as good as the BF and FG falcon's after the car test comparisions, (although the competition was close). Australia's majority taxi's, limo's and business cars have in the recent past decades been Ford Falcon's, mainly because of the in-line six cylinder falcon motor, which is powerful, strong and excellent for clocking high km's, falcon taxi's clock up over 850,000km's and still drive smoothly, unlike Holden's high reving,gutless V6. And also because the ford LPG and LPI gas systems which are cheaper to run. Holden's VE is described by car reveiwers as dated and blooted in appearance. The FG XR6 4L LPI is cheaper to run than a 1.8L corolla and is quicker and more torque than a non gas commodore SV6, falcon LP gas FG only costing $2 to travel 25.7km's!

HOLDEN is best:

Holden has better stuff under the hood,

It doesnt break-down as often,

Better quality in general,

And the parts for Holden are easier to get.

:)

Answer No:2 By FGFPVGUY

FORD

And first of all, both cars are Australian so the sentence regarding Holden parts are easier to get is not correct, both parts are as easy to get as each other. Secondly, the Holden Engines are no better than FORD's engines, that is not correct and Holden quality is no better either, the quality are in cars like BMW or Honda for example.

FORD is the better option because they have the most legendary cars from the late sixties and seventies. The Falcon XY GT HO is the most valuable classic car selling for $1 million and was the fastest four door car in the world in 1971 when new. Ford V8 Supercar drivers hold good sportsman ship and drivers on the road don't show off and act aggressively like Holden's do. The Falcon FG XR6T 4.0L develops more power than the Holden 6.0L V8, as for V8 vs V8, the FORD BOSS 5.0L FG FPV is more powerful than the Holden HSV 6.2L. Wait it doesn't stop there either the FG Typhoon F6 is faster in a drag than HSV V8! The majority of Taxi's, Limo's and business cars are Fords because the Ford six cylinder in-line motor is stronger and better for clocking up very high km's, unlike the high reving V6 Holden motor. Thousands of Ford Falcon EF, EL, AU, BA, BF, FG taxi's over the years have clocked up over 850,000km's each and still drive tighter and more smoother than Holden's with 300,000km's. Ford engineering is of a further ahead standard, both cars are based originally from the US, except Holden now sources there cars with Daewoo too, i.e the Barina Spark. Ford also incorporates some design ideas from Japanese, European and US cars, are engineered in both the US and Australia and are built in Melbourne, Australia.

And I'm sick of HOLDEN fans who say that Holden is better when clearly they don't know there stats, specs, car reviews etc, and think that Holden is better because they win a few extra v8supercar races.

GOING FORD IS THE GOING THING

The BF Turbo is a modern legend in the Australian car reviewers opinion.

Does Holden have more power than Ford?

No Holden vehicles do not have more power than fords. The in line Ford six cylinder engine is more powerful than the V6 commodore engine and when boosted outruns a V8 Holden SS. In the new VE Holden the engine produces 307kw, the FG Falcon V8 GT makes 310kw. (There's hardly any difference is there?... That is until you take into account that the Holden is 5.7L and the Ford engine is 5.4L)
