The back reminds me alot of the current Mercedes CLS, the front grille looks like the Mitsu' Evo Lancer/Nissan GT-R. I guess I'm gonna have to get used to that front, seems like its the direction everyone is going.

I really like that, although it'd look better with a smaller grille.

The new Mondeo seems to be selling well in the UK and this would make a great edition to the range.

Lets hope Ford have the ***** to build it.

The whole frondt end will most likely be redesigned to resemble the current Focus/Kuga/Mondeo lines. But overall I see great potential!

With a few front end tweaks, that car would be stunning - looks pretty dang good just like that even. You can definitely see the Aston/Iosis influence showing up.

If Ford offered that car here and now, it would be a game changer. As things stand now, if it ends up looking like that, it won't arrive until 2012, and then even if it does arrive in 2012 looking like that, will it even make it to our shores...

If, if, if. If my grandmother had wheels she'd be a wagon. Ford needs that car on the roads of North America today.

Ah well, at least they seem to be finally thinking in the right direction.

I don't like front end look which looks like Ford designed these on Halloween night while carving pumpkins...

It's like a new edgier redesign of the '96 Taurus, but instead of a carp, it's now a large mouthed bass....
