I was just checking my NRMA insurance, and noticed that for all 2002 model falcons, there was no 5L AU Futura! Is this consistant throughout the whole range, or just for the final 2002 releases, or completly incorrect together?

Forte, fairmont, fairmont ghia and SR you could get a v8. Not futura.
That goes for series 2/3 anyway, not sure about series 1. |
