Ford has planned a new car, there was the XR5,XR6 and XR8 and so they thought there was room for an XR7....
It has fat rear wheels for traction equal to a GT-R. A lot of weight has been shredded quite a lot from the original style of the XR6's and XR8's Same seating design as a Mc-Larren F1. All new revolutionary steering design. An unbelievable turning circle. Here's the pictures. . . . I realize I might cop some flak, but seen this yesterday and thought it was worthy of a little joke.

Wonder if the competition will have to slash their prices. Oh they just get worse don't they, sorry about that.

That looks like a GT-E with a 427FE (although it doesn't have the argent coloured front pan). Yes Mercury had a GT-E before FPV An Eliminator for your viewing pleasure .... and an XR7 convertible with 428
