Hmmm, I doubt it. Especially if you include all the variants of the platform. They invested wayyy to many pesos to dump the whole thing now. The X-type uses "over 20%" of the contour. But ask a ford mechanic and he'll tell you that the 20% is almost 100% platform and the rest is all jag powertrain and interior/exterior. Next time you have a chance do to your local jag dealership and look to the underside. Take away the powertrain and you will see the tour staring right at you. Not to mention all the rumors and little factuals coming out that the Mondeo might actually be going to mercury. Check out the latest SCC, it has a artical all about it.
Don't get discouraged guys/gals there will be progress. I am anxious to see what happens modwise when the new stang goes to a duratec V6 setup rather than the old pushrod hunk O sheet..
