seXXXy Ford Iosis Concept http://www.topgear.com/content/news/stories/82/
Ok well maybe sexy is stretching it a bit, but hot damn. This thing sure looks better than the boring and mundane Five Hundred. I see some Mazda in the *** end with a hint of Aston Martin and Jaguar up front. If the next Mondeo looks anything like this I'm going to be pissed. The Fusion is just ok compared to this thing. Anyone who knows what the current Mondeo (not the previous gen car which we got here as the Contour) looks like knows that the US got short changed as the Taurus is a major snoozer compared to what Europe got. If only the people who work at Ford of Europe and Ford of Oz would design Ford of America's vehicles. The C1 based Focus is nice and edgy, the Mondeo is still a handsome automobile even though it's been around for a while. And while the upcoming BF Falcon is not as big a change from the BA as the BA was from the AU II perhaps it's a good thing as the BA was already a very handsome car. A damn shame we get stuck with the Five Hundred and only a mildly refreshed Focus around these parts.

it looks good, reminds me of a lexus.
but when they say fiesta or focus i loose all hope that it will look like that. Add a/b 20x the cheapness and you got what your looking for.

Make no mistake, that is very sexy. Ford's mainstream cars here are so extremely dull. The exception may be the Fusion when it debuts. It looks to be a hit.
