Agreed, "Mayhem" is a lame name for a performance package upgrade.
Fits better as the name of a Transformer!

I forget what I submitted for the contest, but I'm sure it was better than "mayhem"

Its going to be "mayhem" when Ford exec's find out that the car is not selling well because of a crappy name. LOL

Someone please save us from the Marketing Departments! Realizing this name will not be considered PC, the name will be changed. New contest....

Hopefully the name only lasts a year, then they'll change it to something that makes more sense for the brand. I think Stallion or Thoroughbred package is more fitting for the brand than Mayhem.

So what was the point of this?

I thought the Performance Package was a fitting name. It's not like they actually market the package, or that special emblems are included on the car (even though they originally said it would back in '09).

I would've rather Ford kept the name and produced some OEM badges for the package.

If a single word draws people away from buying a pure American car, then they are definitely too Prissy to own one in the first place.

How does the word "Mayhem" have anything to do with a ricer or sound ricer. I'm interested to know your thought process behind this

Its just the cheesy name. Like honestly does anyone here think the package needed a name? Cuz i know i didbt think so. Performance Pack, name literally says it all. Theres no need for "Mayhem" or any other nickname. I understand ford reaching out to the public (especially with thw ford gt design) but naming packages?? Too much

Yeah, super STOOPID name, I submited Club Sport myself. Then I realized, it should have been CS3.7 or some such to help dfferentiate this package from the Cali Special.

I wonder if this car will be in any Allstate commercials
