I decided to check out the ford europe site tonight and i was surprised.
http://www.ford.co.uk1st they still make the mondeo. I thought they had stopped. They look pretty nice too. Kind of have a luxury car look there. Gives it a nice stature.
2nd they have this car called the fusion. Thats a nice looking car. looks like a compact suv, like the porsche one. Man if they would only replace the escape with this. They would sell a lot of cars.
Also the fiesta. It doesn't look all gay anymore. It looks like a smaller focus. But it still just looks nicer than the focus thats made here.
I also checked out the streetka. This is a sweet-azz looking car. I would buy one if i could. but of course ford would never bring out such a nice car here. IT would sell TOO MUCh! cant have that now could we.
They have a focus called the cmax. Its a focus but its a mini-van. Why cant they bring that here. The focus is so popular, this would probably sell.
It seems that if ford lost the crown-vic, taurus, escort zx2, excursion, escape, and their van lines (not the commercial e-series) and brought over the streetka, the fiesta, the cmax and the fusion they'd probably make a lot more money. I mean they have redesigned the f-150, that should sell, and the mustang, which should sell, they should be all set. But they need some more stylish small car lines. It seems that ford has forgotten about the starting out kid. All they get is the focus and the zx2. Big woop. Everyone is buying a honda. Why? They look nice and are cheap and small.
There's my rant for the night. Ohh yeah i think im gonna move to europe when i finish college. Get me a Streetka.
