Also kind of surprising that Fairlane hasn't been tossed around.

Good point... especially considering Falcon starts with an F.

Since the subject of the Ford Fairlane came up, check this out:
https://www.ford.com.au/fairlane/Default.asp
4 liter DOHC straight 6 with variable timing in the base model, a 5.4 SOHC with 3 valve heads in the 220 model, also with VVT. Of course it has IRS.
If anyone has been living in a cave the past year, and didn't know Ford still makes the Falcon (in Australia), here's the Ford site. Simply click on "Falcon".

(I wonder why the fact Ford uses the "Futura" name in Oz didn't help them secure the name?
)
