How about this?
"In news from the auto industry today, Ford Motor Company announced today that production of the 2005 Mustang will fall short of the sales goal initially set by the marketing team, barely garnering 90 units pre-ordered nationwide. This setback, along with the continued lagging sales in the new but widely unpopular F-150 (whose market share has been seriously eroded by a new truck from Daewoo), has dealt a serious blow to Ford's stock price and has investors worried.
In an effort to stem the financial bleeding and the disappointing reaction from the buying public, Ford followed up with the surprising news that they will redesign both the Mustang and the F-150 much earlier than planned, most likely sometime before MY2006. To bring a fresh perspective to the design studios, Ford has subcontracted out the styling and performance improvements to a long time competitor, General Motors. This announcement was cited to be the number one reason that many diehard Blue Oval fans immediately jumped from tall buildings in downtown Detroit this afternoon, wreaking havoc on the sidewalk hot-dog vendor business.
However, General Motors spokesperson, E. Z. Lying, had this to say: "We're excited about the possibility of helping Ford design real showstoppers and crowd pleasers like our GTO and of course, our enormously popular Cavalier."
Ford also announced that production of the new wondercar, the GT, will cease immediately and that Ford will upgrade the Mazda 6 with a torque sensing front differential as a substitute "for those serious about performance".
On Wall Street, the news was met with exuberant apathy as prices for both GM and Ford remained steady."
