Europeans are willing to pay much more. Talk of "Ford are you listening, we want the ST220" just does not make sense.





Well, in general they pay more for cars, but less for other of life's necessities. An old brit mag said a MONDEO ST220 costs from- £23,000 to £24,000. aka 36,000 American and 54,000 Canadian!(Maybe it's costs 10 grand more to have a HATCHback ) Of course they aren't going to be able to run the same prices here. A Focus runs from 16,000 to 24,000 American!!!(Not incl HiPerf versions) right now.

I don't know how they can over-price those cars over, esp when cars depreciate EVEN FASTER than a cavalier (hehe)
So price isn't a prob, but Anti-Replacing-Taurus-Execs...
