I would agree that a front engined, rear-wheel-drive car is very apple pie and baseball, but the exterior styling abandoned the squared, Lincolnesque look for something far more round and European, with Ford admittedly using BMW for inspiration. While I really like the looks of this car, I'm sad that it and a few others were the harbingers of doom for vinyl roofs, opera windows, chrome trim, and other American styling cues of the past. It wasn't too long after this car was made that pretty much every car shared the same basic rounded shape, and the ornate loveliness of our domestic past was tossed on the ash heap of history. Sad stuff. This car is available at Autohaus of Naples, but will not be on the web site for a while - for information, please call (239) 263-8500.
