Ford is making good moves on the design front. The concept needs a lot of work but I like the direction.

Retro and retro-modern have more-or-less run their course in the 9 years since they brought the S197 to the table.

I don't really mind carrying the names forward, but then I wasn't alive to see most of these the first time through. I thought the first-gen Taurus was well-received, and we know the early Mustang was as well. Both cars had dark periods, but I don't know that it's worth throwing a name away over.
