I found this report pretty interesting. It basically discusses Fords creation of a "world car," the Ford Contour.
Ya know, I read that whole thing... :crazy:
It is fairly interesting - especially being that it doesn't once mention the Cougar as using the platform as well. :rofl: It says how much they paid to develop the CDW-27, and how they lost money in some aspects of the local changes for the contour/mystique/mondeo. You'd think it would mention how they used it again to make another car... :shrug:

an intersting car is the "Ford Puma" it looks like a scaled down version of the USA cougar. I just wonder how many people know that the name that the cougar animal has about 7+ different names: puma, panther cougar etc.
