They're making a Cougar!?!?! I'd hit it..

More tempting than the Mustang, if I do say so myself..


Anybody else catch the jokes in the Advertising Company's name and address??

In I Samuel 28, Saul went to a witch in the city of Endor and asked her to communicate with Samuel.

Oh, and that whole Bewitched thing too.

my dream machine would be a modern interpretation of the original boss 302: put the 05 on a severe diet...throw in an irs with race spec suspension settings and use the jaguar/lincoln 3.0 v6. a car that will handle like stink and be light and tossable...no pavement burner, but something that winds up tight and has a nice balanced handling to it...that's the reason for the v6: better weight distribution but decent numbers on top of the power band. oh yeah, a maybe a six speed too.

I hope that Cobra is an overly designed protoype drawing. I see a great car just w/o the ugly front bodykit. Ducktail would finish the rear nicely.
Headlights look real sweet.
This Mustang is going to be great when it's out. Since it's being detuned, tuning it back to 550 or more shouldnt be a big feat.

Read my mind...
but this is an outside interpretation... doubt they will do something like that to the lower fascia.

The headlights look pretty cool though.

yeah i was thinking the same thing.. I like the headlights but the rest is just meh

Fanboy art at best

But that cougar I think I could get down on that. It's not as agressive as mu design but i dig it.

Like I said, a 4-door RWD sedan as a 3-series would be perfect,

Build a Falcon version for Ford and something for merc.. Give it an IRS, good handling, tight proportions and the option of a V8. That would be a winner.

Great picture "toon-up" BM--now didn't you also do an Eliminator version of you own design?
...And one with an AAR style stripe?

for Corba i only see Saleen in it... :nono:

as for the cougar... i dunno i like... but i dont like... when i look at it for some reason i see a lil corvette... which in my opinion is just morally wrong. i dont even know what it is either that i picture corvette in it but i do. maybe its the vent behind the front wheel that makes me think corvette, i dont know. as fo me liking it; i love the front end of it. looks hot. but IMO i love BM's cougar a million times more.

The front fascia isn't what I expect for the Cobra, but those headlights sure do look sweet! Please Ford, get the headlights right on the Cobra (and the SE)!
