Ford Focus RS WRC 06 - RSportsCars.com (#)

„It is based on the high-performance Ford Focus ST road car, which was launched across Europe in 2006. The Focus RS WRC 06 has been designed and built in less than 11 months by an experienced and innovative engineering team led by Christian Loriaux, technical director at British-based company M-Sport which operates the Blue Oval's WRC programme. His team has worked closely in the development with Ford TeamRS, Ford of Europe's performance road car and motorsport arm.“

Ford Shelby GR-1 Concept - RSportsCars.com (#)

„The Shelby GR-1 concept combines modern sculptured surfaces and a sleek muscular fastback design into a car that could succeed the Ford GT once its production cycle concludes. All of the sophisticated mechanicals of this extraordinary coupe are wrapped in a sleek, muscular aluminum skin left bare and polished bright. The result is a forward-looking supercar with attention-grabbing Ford presence and Carroll Shelby inspiration.“

2008 Ford Focus sedan and coupe announced (#)

„I like what Ford is doing with their cars, some similarities (2,3 bar crome grill), some exterior similarities, but also styled differantly, the focus seems to be rounded on the edges, the 500 around the hood and roof, and the fusion is a bit sharper and sporty, I would have liked to see the coupe be a little sharper like the fusion, but in no way am I going to complain. I like how they set the buttons apart on the interior from everything else ...“

Ford's Challenge Ads Reaching Higher (#)

„Nasser didn't come up with a quick and thorough facelift and the car sank into oblivion. Ford dumped the cars into rental fleets. For the past year, until the Atlanta factory was closed in November, it was exclusively a rental car. The name is synonymous with cheap cabins, ugly design and the loss of one of the best American car franchises in decades.“

Spied: 2008 Ford Freestyle (#)

„And I suppose Accords and Camrys and Altimas arent family cars? Yeah those cars are not the best looking either but they're a million times better looking than this generic econo waggon piece of garbage that Ford designed. Who the hell said you need a wagon to haul around your family? You basically just gain vertical space in the trunk I mean you can haul plenty of groceries in a regular sedan.“

Ford Reports Unanticipated 2Q Loss; Drop in SUV and Truck Sales Partly to Blame (#)

„Most of this discussion had to do with Ford being unable to predict the rise in fuel prices. However, I think the biggest issue was Ford's (and GM's) unwillingness to keep up with the technologies being developed by other car companies. This is not as a result of a lack of engineering capability. It's as a result of a business model that favors cost cutting.“

Ford's big gun for Detroit: the Mustang-based Interceptor Concept - Autoblog (#)

„It's slab-sided hotness reminds us of the 427 Concept from 2003, but with some extra chunkiness tossed in for good measure. Seriously, though, this car should be built, if not for the fact it's a slick way to profit from the Mustang connection, but also because Ford is going to need a large, rear-wheel drive car that's competitive in the very near future ...“

The Ford Mustang Is 40 Years Old - Popular Mechanics (#)

„Although the 6-cylinder and 3-speed remained standard, the horsepower race was in full bloom. When Ford needed to homologate its new 429 Hemi for NASCAR, it chose a special run of Boss 429 Mustangs, all fastbacks. In the spring of 1969, Ford introduced the Boss 302, also a fastback, built to homologate cars in Trans Am road racing.“

Ford Unveils Shelby GR-1 Concept At Pebble Beach - Popular Mechanics (#)

And the GR-1 would be a perfect successor once the GT goes out of production in 2007. The GR-1 concept is built from a modified version of the GT's platform.“

Finalists For Car and Truck of the Year - Popular Mechanics (#)
