I'll agree that the Azera is slightly bland up front, but the A6 side profile and gorgeous rear end (note the beautiful LED tails) make for a very elegant look. I really don't get Ford. Whomever approves their designs must be on crack.

Ugly, no style, wrong power platform, under powered, oh….it isn’t an SRT8 that’s right.

Oh well….same old boring crap they’ve been serving up for quite a while now.

Below is what Ford Europe is doing with the excellent Mondeo, why can't they bring that here and style the Five Hundred like it? I really think someone at Ford has shorted the stock and wants to make a fortune when they go bankrupt. No one can possibly think that thing with it's hudeous front end will sell.

I sent Ford an Email last month asking why they treat us like a red headed stepchild and give us Fusions and the Europeans get sweet looking Mondeos. I have not heard a reply.

Now that is a nice looking car.

You tell me.

Click on THIS to see the updated FIVE HUNDRED.

The 60 extra horsepower won't hurt. I'll say that much.

Craig!!

NO GOOD

Ford gets a thumbs up for where they've taken the F series and Mustangs (esp. the proposed design for the next mustang) but they are definitely neglecting the other cars they make. Ah well good effort

Love the stang F-Series but what the heck is this. Like you said some folks dont need anything but transportation.

Could you repeat that….I didn’t quite get it.

This is just a subtle and interesting way of saying:
Ford 500: would not be seen dead in it!

It demands the reader to construct an obvious sentence from some jumbled up words!
Hope it makes you smile!

i would not be seen dead in a ford 500

gotta use the I from "Do I make myself clear?" and then the A from CLEAR then just drop the "it!"

my first reaction was ewwww...

The next reaction was if they pay me i might park it in my garage but they will have to pay big.

third reaction is if they want me to take it out of the garage and actually drive it they will have to pay more.
