True enough, but Ford could have decided to be like Daimler Chrysler or Chevrolet and offer a true high end sports car for more than a year or two. Ford has a nasty history of getting in and out of the market. Look at the Mustang Cobra for example. Back in 1993-1999 gone 2000, back 2001, gone 2002, back 2003-2004, gone 2005-2006. The Lightning makes another good example. Started in 1993-1995, gone 1996-1998, back 1999-2004, gone 2005+. I could go on and on about how Ford hops in and out of the market without dedicating resources to the development of new vehicle concepts. You're not going to get any ownership loyalty by offering a lineup with holes that keep changing from year to year.
