Ford's Answer To The Crossfire???

[briandyche]

Is this what ford hopes to release as an answer to the Chrysler Crossfire???This is a quote from a site on the Ford Visos...
The Visos whispers passion in every curve, every seam, every angle. It is an emotional prodigy of Ford's young and eager design team. It’s the first bespoke design study we’ve treated ourselves to in several years.

Most importantly it is a Ford. It speaks Ford’s design language, the visual culture that unites all the members of our family of cars. It builds on a history of Ford icons like the Model-T, the GT 40, the original Escort, the Puma and the Capri. And it says something about where Ford is heading in the coming years.

The Ford Visos. It’s about the future of the blue oval. It’s about a great team. It’s about passion.


I personally think that it is ugly...but that is my opinion...The reason I ask if this is their answer to the crossfire is that it looks strangely similar...don't you think???Here are some specifications on it...

i dont like it it looks funny as hell i do like the simplicity of the of the dash though but the crossfire looks better imo

[misterphotoshop]

im guessing the cd players and stuff is behind that visos thing...

I think its ugly imo

[v8_king]

I think it looks mad. It is about time someone made a futuristic hatchback.

[MRWILDE]

I actually don't mind the look. Even though it does look like a complete copy of the Crossfire everyone is entitled to a similar design. Very well done even though I do like the Crossfire much more.

Ugly. It kind of has some audi-ness to it..does anyone else see it or is just me..
I dont like the dash either. Too plain, to empty just ugly..lol..

Whats a crossfire look like?..Im not American

[Chopsta]

it looks like a nice sports car (crossfire)
looks nice but expensive

[Blacksabbath]

yeh it does look nice... but terrible performance. its americas attempt to make a small sporty hatch. no match for even a small ricers car... like a good civic or and integra or sumthin

[v8_king]

if u want a good hatch then get ford focus. you can get a v8 put in them for a little extra cash
