Ford's New Look

'New Edge' is on its way out - curves could be back

The new capri? The last 2 failed as well (Probe and Cougar).
Just give us the Falcon XR8, New Mustang and GT and we'll be happy

NewCortina, thats what we want. Ban the Bomb rear lights the lot. Oh and a decent engine too.

I think the secret lies in the combination of curves and straight lines not separating the two, like the (something in german)kink BMW employed in the rear quarterlight.
This thing has a nice curvy bod with a straight line cutting it all in half?

actually it doesn't have a nice curvy bod, just a pale imitation of something else, T350ish mebbe

Lets see. Ford, four seater, sports car.

hmm seems like none of these words go together, sure you can have any one but not two let alone three

They could have waited for the lights to come on before taking the photo

The best looking Ford ever was the 2001/2 Forty-niner. Shades of Mk 2 Consul and Shoebox 49 Ford. Unfortunately they chose not to make it. Better than the contrived rubbish they churn out now. See www.edmunds.com/media/2001/naias/Ford.Forty-Niner.f3-4.350.jpg

What's wrong with a four seater?

It may not be as pure as a two but some of us have to transport kids and/or grannies and dont want to be seen in a '5'.
