Ford has a lot of tallent, but even though Mays is officially in charge, Ms. Ford gives the go/no go to all cars :(
I like this design... and it is the beginning of a branded design that Ford desperately needs... not unlike the branded Cadillac design that John Manoogian is responsible for.
as I hinted at many moons ago... Ford spent a lot of time into breaking down the design of the 300 C right from the get go ;)
Edit:
Quote:
American Muscle: The Ford Interceptor concept celebrates the best of American muscle with a four-door that marries “Built Ford Tough” attitude with the sporty elegance of 1960s sedans.
Legendary performance: The Interceptor concept’s Ford Racing 5.0-liter Cammer engine runs on E-85 ethanol and produces 400 horsepower. This engine powered the Mustang FR500C to the 2005 Grand-Am Cup Championship in its first year of competition.
Safety: Interceptor incorporates Ford’s patented four-point “belt and suspenders” design in the front and rear seats. In addition, inflatable safety belts are included for rear seat passengers.
