I guess those of us who find Mustangs nauseating in the first place may 
feel differently.

The Mustang has always been a two-door sports car and it has never been 
rare, in any sense of the word.  "Ubiquitous" would be a better 
description.  Because of that, the Mustang is boring to me.  Dress it up 
all you want, it's still a Mustang at the core, which equals boring (to me).

To get me interested in a Mustang, Ford would have to get me to believe 
that it's somehow different; that it stands out from the crowd.  I 
happen to be partial to sports sedans, so putting two more doors on it 
(a la Australia's Ford Falcon), is a good way to do it.

Of course, I'd like it even better if they didn't call that a Mustang 
("Falcon" has a nice ring to it ;)), but by that point, I've morphed 
this into a completely different topic.

Regards,
Jon Heese
