And that version was NOT what Farley wanted to work with...not to compete with the Lincoln version's intended competition. And the Lincoln models (plural) will NOT be just 2-dr versions.
And now the S550 is what it is...a far better foundation than a flexi-flyer S197-based version ever would have been. At the Lincoln's price point, there's budget for light-weight tech adoption, that will eventually trickle down to the Mustang...

Wow, I was just over on MustangC6 website and talked about my dislike of the new Mustang HP numbers and a few other things, I was called out being a troll, a Chevy fanboy when I said I had owned many Mustang's and then the moderator threatend to ban me....so like I told him, as long as I am a Ford fanboy and dont complain about the new Mustang then you wont ban me right?, and he basically said yes to that....
