Really......I didn't know they stopped production on the Avalon. Thats kinda strange considering they don't have anything else to fill that segment. As for the Accord.....I've sat in the new one and they can classify as whatever they want to but its not anywhere near as roomy as the other fullsized cars.

I don't like the twin brow usage in the Taurus. While it looks good, it ought to be reserved for the Mustang only, otherwise it dilutes the Mustang's uniqueness.
Overall, though, quality appears to be up - nice to see the Sony badged center speaker...lends a definite upmarket feel to the car.

The Mustang's high wide mouth grille style can also be see on old late 50's Tbird design studies. The 1965-66 Thunderbird
The 1964-66 Thunderbird dashes were beautiful and very interesting as well... To me the whole 1958-66 era of Tbird dashes and consoles were the most beautiful of all time...
It seems the 1964-66 Tbird dash and console design may have inspired the 1982-93 Camaros and Firebirds...
The 1968 Shelby and GT/CS lifted the taillamps right from the 1965 Thunderbird with the bezels.

I am seriously passionate about old Mustangs, Thunderbirds, Cougars and several other Fords including fastback and sportroof models. The new Mustang is the only car left in the world that has the same timeless looks, detail and proportions that evokes those passions.
It's a shame I feel nothing for any other new Ford, Lincoln or Mecury produced today.
