True. The MKZ is basically a Ford Fusion. Combine the nose of the Fusion with the rear of the MKZ.

Then make it a 2-door coupe.

I wish they would make it rwd. I know it won't happen, but I wish.

I think the reason why they (Ford) wouldn't is that it might take away from Mustang sales. Keep it FWD or AWD, offer it with a real manual tranny, give it a slightly de-tuned (from the Mustang) version of the Ecoboost 4 and price it in the mid-20's.

I really miss the days when there was a coupe version of just about every car Ford and GM made. Sure, they weren't always great cars, but a two door caprice looked 10x better than the 4 door.

I'm disappointed that after the couple years of rumors of the new GT being 200 lbs lighter than the outgoing, that it ended up being close to 200 lbs heavier.

Still a sweet car though.

Yeah. the ecoboost can claim a 90 pound drop from the standard v6 but yeah. ...all this safety equip plus the IRS. ...win some, lose some.

The new V8 beats the boss 302 around a track tho.

:worship:

If I were in the market, I'd much rather have an A8 with the 4.0 liter V8.

A8 is nice, but I am a Caddy man.

Even though I've never driven one.

If they do build it, let's hope they make it competitive in every area and not just in the chassis.

I hear that's the issue with the ATS. I love the interior of it though. My father said it drove nice too.

And for the sake of the marque, I hope they don't end up relying on an Australian or European platform the way Chevy had to do with the Camaro and the SS.

The next gen camaro will share the same platform as the caddy.

Test drove a new M3 yesterday. Very nice car but as big as the old E39 M5.

Quick, little turbo lag. I didn't get to hustle it around the corners too much unfortunately.

This I like! Nothing, and I mean nothing is cheaper and easier to build power with than a turbo 4. Especially if it has things like direct injection. If I was so inclined, I could probably take the speed 3 up to 350hp+ with less than $2500 invested.
