Wow, look at Ford copying Hyundai with the shark gills!




When I thought the world has been through everything, it goes into another wierdo car cycle... Why do people buy these bland grotesque nightmares? There's not enough hot cars in this world, just like there is not enough hot ladies in this world. I'm hoping to change that.

I'm sorry but I LIKE this:

I do NOT like this:

Just so it's clear I'm not crazy.

If I were the chief designer, all designs that pass through me would be there for man to love his machine and cherish it in more than one way. I know it's very rare, but my models would be like REDZMAN's hard working bikini car wash girls.

while at it, I would bring back the California beach car too.

the 2 door one is hideous. nothing seems to flow properly in the back half of the car

however, in terms of progressing the Focus further, i don't think its that bad looking (the 4 door).

^do you mean the 2005 or the 2003? because i think the original 1999 was the best there is, designed in germany by germans... although i've driven in one and it was stuipid as hell... can't believe the germans are capable of something that bad, gears and suspension all felt good but felt like a damn van.

jorge, the mirrors are half plastic. how stupid is that?

the taillights don't even align to the line of the car... the whole thing is goofy, overdone, and random to me.

Bleh.

Guess Ford thinks having a car that looks good is overrated.
