STATEMENT - FORD: "NO PLANS FOR EXPANDED MUSTANG LINE"

DEARBORN, Mich., Dec. 15 - Ford Motor Company today made clear that
recent media speculation concerning an expanded Mustang line -
including a sedan and wagon model to be sold in global markets - is
not true. Mustang is an icon and will continue in its current form: a
unique, two-door, rear-wheel drive, 2+2 performance car.

At the 2007 North American International Auto Show, Ford will unveil
a four-door, rear-wheel-drive concept car. The concept, known as "The
Interceptor", is based on the Mustang's rear-wheel-drive architecture
but it is not a Mustang and no production plans have been announced.
Additional information on the Ford rear-drive concept will be
available December 31, 2006.

Yep! A day after our thread was started Ford ditches their plans.
Next I say we demand low-cost, strippo version with a 5-liter and a
hatchback! Who's with me?
