The car from the motor show would be WAY too expensive in the current economic conditions......they simply wouldn't sell.In my opinion it looks 10 times better than the standard GT, and with the other minor additions at only 3k more, will make some buyers very happy

What a complete waste of time and I'm not sure what our friends at Ford were thinking? How can they leave out the main items that made the show car a viable option from a regular GT. What everyone is asking for is wider rear rubber/rims, a decent handling package and a body kit that differentiates a limited run of only 125 cars. It is very obvious after reading that Ford have waved the white flag in the chase for the Late model camira that they have also given up on listening to their customers (you know, the ones who actually buy your cars and not the print media who constantly bag them). Very lame FoMoCo

Mist Member 54 Member For: 20y 2m 11d Posted 10/08/11 09:43 AM Posted 10/08/11 09:43 AM Absurd. Completely incomprehensible. Did it go something like this:Sales Guy: Wow, everyone really liked our Black concept car with the new front bumper, upgraded black brake calipers, wider rear wheels and better suspension. Great feedback Production: OK, lets do it then. Only lets drop the new front bumper, upgraded black brake calipers, wider rear wheels and better suspension.Sales Guy: What? Um, well, can we still have it in black though? Production: Oh, OK, you twisted my arm, don't say I'm not good to you guys! Sigh. I had seriously redone our budget for next year to give me room to buy one if they came out. Guess I get to save the money but geez, such a disappointment.
