I know all you car guys will have an opinion on this. I have seen pictures of this car and I think they will sell a lot of them. Compared to the land yacht they evolved the T Bird into before stopping production 4 years ago this car looks sweet. It really does look like a modern version of the 1950's model. I have not seen any of the performance statistics not any good shots of the interior but from the few pictures I have seen I really like it.

As long as it doesn't arrive at the dealers with 4 stop-sell recalls like the last couple of cars Ford released.

I think it will be a success.

I think it will take off like the New Beetle did a few years ago, and the PT Cruiser did last year. Even in spite of the fact that the price is substantially higher than either of the other two, the demographic that Ford is targetting generally has more disposable income.

the late 50s through late 70s where land yachts but the 80s and 90s where not that big hell the 80s came with 2.3l 4 bangers. Anyway I really like the 90s birds, dad has a 96, but I think the new t-birds will sell well atleast untill the novelty wears off.
