IIRC,

FG I was around 700 million but the government threw in like $130 million
FG II /SZ Territory are approx $230 million both all up (includes DTCI, Ecoboost and Eco LPI.
Falcon Update for emissions, engine cost $21 million but Government threw in $13 million.


We did this exercise a few years ago and it worked out to around $4,000 a car over the product cycle.
The best you could hope for with an imported car is $3,000/car reduction but given the cost of freight,
local development costs and Ford pocketing the rest, I doubt you'd see too much difference.
