I doubt the contour SVT will ever come back, at least not with that name probably. The only thing that would be similar that i can think of is possibly a SVT version of the futura, which has been rumored. So i think the bodyshop guy is mistaken.

I would love to see a new version of the CSVT, but I really don't like the looks of the futura. to much like a CTS and the new Accord.

100% not true. However I'd like to see the Taurus SHO be brought back, but that wont happen either cuz the Taurus is also being terminated very soon.

I'd be very surprised to see Ford produce a 4-door SVT ever again, excluding the 4 door Focus SVT which has been rumored in the next couple years. I just don't think a 4-door SVT will ever happen.

However, hopefully my predictions about Ford are just like my predictions about women, always completely wrong.

Not in the form that they're imagining, at least.

The new Mondeo is already in Europe. In fact, the ST220 is one of the most powerful Mondeos ever, with 3.0 Duratec V-6, Recaro seats, 18" wheels, etc. The problem is... Mondeo is close to Taurus in size, and Ford can't introduce the new Mondeo in the US without eating away at Taurus sales. As Taurus is still the #3 seller after Camry/Accord in sedans, it's still big money.

However, as others have said, Taurus is going away soon, to be replaced by one of those common platforms with odd crossover names. Not in the next year, but in the next 36 months or so. The replacement will be bigger, which will make room for the new Contour (though it MAY just go by the Euro name, Mondeo).

Here's a thread from TCCA that talks about the Tuarus as well as the 500 and the Futura, along with some engine stuff not pertaining to the discussion. Sift through that.

new Fords

If this really happens...

As long as we are speculating on rumors, this is what I read. The Mondeo will be brought over under the Sable badge once current Sable/Taurus production stops. As previously mentioned Ford doesn't want to cut into what is currently good sales and hence good revenue. Just what I read for what it is worth.
