Huh?? ... the Ford Falcon FPV GT has never been sold in the States.

Why all of a sudden we're getting a flurry of Aussie performance cars? Did the US relax rules or something?

I don't think there are any plans to take the FPV GT over to the States either...
Notice that the car in the photos is a right-hand-drive car, so it definately cannot be a US version. I think Edmunds just decided to do a feature on an Aussie car..... and I have to say it's a true-blue Aussir brute!! Looks menacing as hell... only one of a handful of cars that looks great with that huge wing planted on the rear deck! Under the bonnet it only gets better!! ..But as the article states, the new Holden VE Commodore (subsidiary of GM) will outclass the Falcon. In fact, a local motoring magazine did a comparo of the Holden Commodore, MB E-class, and BMW 5er... and stated that the Holden had better steering and handling than the 5er .. but umm, I find that hard to believe. A case of patriotism gone too far there!
