Wait, I thought Contour was the Merkur's Phoenix?



Or was that Tucson?



More of a Tucson, the Merkur was ugly enough that you don't want it directly resurrected.



Bah. If you look at a Ford Sierra 4-door sedan, the styling lineage to the Contour is obvious.

And the Euro XR4s are very nice looking, IMHO. The US bumpers really uglified it.
