This is the funny thing about Ford. They have some pretty cool concepts, but all of the cars they put into production have the personality of a rock. That car design will never see the light of day ever again.

You're right, redlava. Ford won't produce it because it doesn't look like something they produced over 40 years ago! Examples: Mustang, T-Bird, Ford GT, Cobra concept, Bronco concept.

Lets not forget one of my personal favorites from Ford. The '49.

I agree with red. That wont ever get built. NEVER. What about the Indigo and the GT90 that never made it. They were both even in video games around the time thery were at the NAIAS and still didn't get built. The new Cobra and Bronco were awesome looking too but those wont get built.Everybody SERIOUSLY needs to stop looking at and designing cars in a "practical, safe, environmentally friendly" mind-set because it is really starting to (removed) me off. If I'm in the market for a new car whether it be for performance, style, or whatever, I don't care how many babies it can fit in secret storage compartments, I don't care if I can withstand a 300mph head on collision with a 747, or if I can drive from Detroit to L.A. on one tank of gas, and I certainly don't care if it destroys the atmosphere, it's going to happen anyways!!!As the host of Top Gear said: "These modern supercars (Enzo, Carrera GT, Zonda) are much safer for the people inside them. They're more reliable than the old ones AND they are kinder to the environment....All that comes out of the exhaust pipes of this Carrera GT are baby foxes...That's not how it should be. Supercars are supposed to be designed to melt ice caps, kill the poor, poison the water table, destroy the ozone layer, decimate indigenous wildlife, recapture the Falcon(?) islands and turn the ENTIRE third world into an un-inhabitable waste land, ONLY AFTER nicking all of the world's oil."Well put in my mind...
