first of all, it's aston martin.
as seen driven by vintage bonds. and the body.

second; ford is run by an aussie.
he's a tough boss - street educated

thirdly; to cut costs they use ford switchgear
in aston martin and jaguar autos.
the purists complain.

detroit continues to infiltrate the world.
vw has germany tied up in a sort of third wave,
but detroit's chrysler hooked up with benz...

who will buy bmw?

Re: [313] FOCUS DETROIT TECHNO/STREET EDITION

2000-11-15 Thread FRED MCMURRY
Ford owns Jaguar automobiles as well as some others (Volvo, Autin Marten, 
Mazda...) but why the hell would they put a Jaguar on their Ford brand cars? 
That's like putting a Rolls Royce label on a Toyota. Does it have anything 
to do with the UR tune? I couldn't see them really trying to connect on this 
level. It's just too deep a connection (Detroit Techno = UR's Jaguar) for a 
company to try and market it this way. Doesn't make sense.

The Street Edition is the third in a series of Focus statement cars
built since Focus was launched in the U.S. last year. The Sony Limited
Edition Focus and the Kona Mountain Bike Edition were the first two
statement cars.



Apparently the 'Sony Ltd. Edition' Focus features European
styling, 'Jaguar' badges (in place of Ford badges) and is decked out in
British racing green. But, I hear the highway performance is
disappointing compared to the Detroit Techno/Street Edition.
