KL15,
although most of your post makes sense I personally disagree with the retro styling that seems to be so prevalent recently.
The new (old style) T-Bird
The new (old style) Mustang
The 50's style Chevy truck
etc., etc.
The real problem is this:
After you've re-hashed a previous designer's model and pawned it off as new, where can you possibly go from there?
And don't forget the biggest tragedy here.
In 1957 the Thunderbird was Ford's "look to the future".
45 years later all they could do is give a watered down version of a once fine car.
Best, Toots
