The Ford Focus and the Ford 500 are very nice and well engineered cars. And they were designed to replace the Taurus.

The Fusion was designed to replace the Taurus. The Focus is the replacement for the Escord. The Five Hundred is a very nice and smooth ride, but it is boring and ugly!

Fortunatly, Ford is continuing production on the Crown Victoria. That way you can always pretend to be an unmarked police vehicle or "narc" car.

Yep, ugly alright, kinda like the Buick Aztec, and some other horrible designs.

My parents had a 500 way back when and it was boring and ugly too. Why Ford felt the urge to revive the brand I'll never know. It's not as if anyone had an emotional attachment to it from their childhood.

Now, why Chevy hasn't revived the Belair I'll never know.
