SNOB!

J/K

Actually, what you said is a good idea. Would you still brand it a Ford or upscale it to a Lincoln?

I am a snob. I'll admit it...lol..

Badge it as a Lincoln.

Lincoln is going to trash it with another 2-400lbs of 'luxury' equipment though
their cars aern't the best looking these days either, I can't immagine how fugly it will look post lincoln handling.

Why would they? It is already pretty well optioned out.

Not if you market it as a sporty Lincoln.

fair enough. They still have the ecoboost MKZ but I'd say they'd have an easier time pulling it off.

Damn it, why can't we ever have s*** like this in the states? Then, when we do, they get killed off? ROFL....

You mean the MKS. The MKZ just has the base 3.5.

yup, Lincoln model names are not my strong point haha.

in Australia, there are only two car companies, and your social status is definied by which you have
1) ford
2) GM
the bathurst race is basicly a bunch of both fighting while drunk, and then a race happens to break out during the intermission of fighting over which is better.

so the competition is pretty great there. Hence why they get all the good s***.

Great car but I would still rather have a BMW. Yea I am a snob. I say Ford should build the Falcon here as a competitor to the Cadillac CTS-V, Merc E63 AMG, Audi S6/RS6, Lexus GS-F, BMW M5.

Most of those cars cost ~$100k...

Ford sedan costing almost $100k? No thx, I'll take the Audi or BMW or Lexus before I spent 6 figures on a FORD... And I would guess the market would agree.

you don't make it $100K, you make it slightly more expensive than a Sho, so the 50-60K range mabye 70K fully loaded, which is resonable and well price for what you get in terms of performance. Also, for the Price segment it would kill everything.

Fair enough. I still wouldn't buy it, lol. (burnout)

Again, I see your TG history lesson is setting in.

You'd have to price it about the same as a CTS-V or it wouldn't sell. No reason to price it above that or it's going to implode on lots.
