I think it looks too tall and out of proportion and those wheels are not big enough. I'll wait until I see it for real though.

On a Good day, Chris Bangle designs the Fiat Coupe.
On a Bad day, he designs a BMW.

Hey, I'm kinda drunk at the moment, but hey, what is a FORD doing in the Europeon-section?
All I need: Audi S8 & Porsche 911 Carrera S
It's a European Ford.Originally Posted by Amaru
Hmmm, interesting. I can definately see the Renault in the taillights, but my first thought on looking at it was "Iosis".
And yes I can see the Gallardo in the wheels, but they're really more like those on the Focus XR5/ST.

This is a car thar a year after bit's release we'll be tired of seeing. Not because there will be too many, but because it's a design that's tiring.

I just thought of something. The new James Bond movie features the new Mondeo and it is partly being shot in the Bahamas (IIRC). So this is probably the car that's being used in the movie.
there are small cues taken from loads of different cars, for ec=xample the BMW sides with the taught edges, the Mercedes front headlights, and the XK rear lights not exactly but similar
any how at least its not too bland an not just another car to fill a segment.....
TVR, Heres to Peter wheeler and his last creationg of the Scamander.
Coventry seriously sucks....
the more i look at the car the more i like it

I don't see why a couple of people think it is not just "Not good looking", but "UGLY". I find that hard to justify. It's all subjective though.
IMO it's a beautiful car.
EDIT: I think Lagonda is right, the Mondeo pictured looks too clean and shiny for a test vehicle!!

A couple days back Ford already has shown some pics of a Mondeo stationcar which will be presented on the upcomming Paris Motorshow. The stationcar will be presented first because it's the best selling Mondeo in the whole range...

Myself, I think it looks great from the front 3/4 view, but the back looks like its been squashed in - too sorta flat looking. The waistline looks exactly the same as the Focus sedan.
So is this car going to form the styling basis for the 2008 Falcon then?

I am a New Zealander, and I hate Greg Murphy. Yes, we exist.
It frustrates me that Ford, while essentially lying on its deathbed and bleeding profusely, doesn't realize that their extremely high quality products are being built and sold everywhere but America.

Im pretty sure it will, but the link wont be as strong as between Iosis and Mondeo for example.Originally Posted by Monty_Burns
