I still maintain that nobody in NA will pay that kind of money when they can get a mustang for the same or cheaper.
And why kill off the v6 mustang? It fills a very prevalent demographic need in NA. And, I'm sorry, a 2011 GT, for less than the expected sticker on an ST focus would likely run circles around it. That solid rear axle doesn't inspire confidence, but the car can handle well enough.. because in the end, it's how you drive it, not what you drive.
As much as I would love these cars to come over and be successful, the reality of the market in NA is totally different.
BTW.. I've been driving a Fiesta the last week or so -- it's a crackin' little car. And a joy to park in impossible parking spots.
