So you are saying you know what the production model may look like? Do tell!

They already do: (a couple actually)

They just aren't available in the US market, but then, very few of the excellent cars Ford makes are.

I agree. The last thing I want to drive is a ricey sedan-looking car. The 'Stang has to say "Performance" with its looks too. Anyone can put a massive 502ci supercharged big block and 1500 ft-lbf rated C4 tranny into a mini van.
A performance car to me must also look the part in addition to walking the part!

To me it looks like an Italian sports car designer conducted an experiment in which a Camaro and a Mustang were forced to breed and create a mutt child.

WTF????!!! Sorry, the Rancheros and El Caminos were not a good truck/coupe hybrid design. Those tried to do both truck and pony car stuff, but didn't do either very well.

The UTE pulling a boat trailer? I have got to know what kind of suspension that thing has to pull the duties of a truck!

That 335 GT looks pretty sweet.


Not bad looking for a 345 HP Focus.

It's not bad but it screams RICE to me, even though it's an American company.
It's what I call a "Wuscle Car".....Want-to-be Muscle Car.

I agree....that car looks pretty hot. That is marketed for the evo/sti population. As for it "trying" to be a muscle car.....what a silly comparison. I don't ever recall the Focus falling into that category.
