My mate has a VE SSV in the Morpheous Purple. We always give him heaps about having a homosexually purple car.

Funnily enough, he is the only one out of us that is married. :lol:

It is a nice colour, we just give him heaps.

Check the date on the creation of that model! 1984! What the hell did Ford do for the other 4 years?

This is probably the model that was seen in Germany- where they commented that it was a replacement for Audi/ BMW models.

Is there any EA/EB/ED Falcons created into a model apart from the Supercars? It'd be awesome to have/make a scale version of my shitter.
