i think ford knows better than to do that. they would loosea LOT of popularity among their loyalists. sounds like a sh*tty plan to me.

well if the new 500m is going to be like an S80 then that means its going to have an inline-5 and well i doubt that it does have an inline-5 :P the only manufactuer in the world i think that ever makes is volvo, and well their cars are good (my mom has an 850glt and thinking of swaping it for an s60) but they arent power machines unless ur talking about s60r. </P>


As for all these claims the cars are turning into foreign cars with domestic badges, who cares. if the foreign european companies can help take the original engine layouts and find ways to imrpove itself then thats good. But the heart of american cars will be the same. </P>


I actually think mazda is becoming more like ford in their new line up series but thats just my opinion and not based on fact. but whatever, the guy just wanted to diss american cars which i think is unfair. Each car manufacturer has their strengths and their weaknesses but none is the end all and be all of the automotive world. mehp</P>

thePreacher

MazdaRX7

Doesn't Ford own a part of Mazda anyway?

Jugador1

yeah, and thats apparently the part they own. the 3 is the same chassis and stuff as the focus.

Wait... it doesn't haveanything to do with Ford.</P>


Who said that? </P>


Ford used chassi's in conjunction with Mazda</P>


Escort=Protege</P>


Focus=Mazda 3 (as Jug said) </P>


Just like Chevy and Pontiac, Ford and Lincoln, etc. same difference, only Ford only owns part of Mazda, while Lincoln, Mercury and Jaguar are owned completely by Ford.</P><edited><editID>pSicho</editID><editDate>38027.013900463</editDate></edited>
