On the GT-40, I can't help but think the car projects the wrong image of Ford. Basically it puts a figurehead vehicle on top of car line that needs serious revamping. I'd rather see Ford put the money into building a line of cars that's ready to kick butt.
The announcement of this vehicle was the first step of many, not the only. I'd agree with you if it was the only one, but it isn't.
Ford is absent from the specialty coupe, entry-mid size, sporty car, and economy car markets.
I guess I would need competitive examples, I think Ford motor company has a strong presence in each, not necessarily the Ford Division.
A sports sedan isn't going to have the market already tapped in for it
Lets put it this way. Would you produce a vehicle that has a strong potential in its class, has an obvious customer, and requires little promotion because it is already established with aftermarket etc. or would you produce a car that doesn't have a specific market, and requires millions of dollars in promotion just to convince the mass public that it can be considered as a performance vehicle, and you can't do both? Remember I would love to see an SVT performance sedan, and I get a sense that most of your comments stem from that same want.
