This is commonly done with more performance focused cars. In the case of Ford, what irritates me is that if they put the effort into their other products such as the Fusion, Focus, Taurus, etc. they would probably not be considered so lame. Now I know that we are talking about aftermarket companies doing this, but I would think that this car would act as a lesson for Ford that if they would make a few other interesting cars, that they might do well elsewhere.

Well honestly I think you can expect that to happen with any muscle cars these days honestly. I prefer a more conventional model myself.
