As far as I know it was a prototype, but a few did make it onto the market I think.
Yes it was road legal, there is a video of them on AUFalcon.com

http://www.aufalcon.com/aufalcon.htm > enter > videos > Drivetime AU Falcon 300+ (8.2 meg)

Arrow 300+ or something it was called. 2 door coupe, very sexy looking car.. and back in the day were around the 110k mark.
There was 2 different models released, and I think the 2nd version was closer to the 150k mark and slightly better again, different bodykit atleast but still a 2door coupe.
Both had a 4.6L supercharged V8, 6spd manual from memory aswell.

Im not sure if you can still get them, and I say it would be a very very lucky find if one came up for sale somewhere.

IN all honesty, Id rather the 2 door coupe, with an XR front end on it. Dropped pretty low, I think it would look a tough treat cruisin down the road every day.
