Ford SAV Concept - Like or dislike???
« on: October 21, 2005, 03:50:25 am »
hey all, just wanted your opinion on the newer concept vehicle by Ford Europe, the SAV. A pic is posted with this post to see if you guys like it, it's from a swedish website:

Let me know what you think,

I posted that pic about 6 months ago, I think it's pretty cool looking.  I like it, very euro.

Other than the wheels that look rediculous, I think that car looks awesome! And I have to say that if it came out in Canada, I'd be tempted in at least trying it out and who knows, maybe renting one! But it doesn't seem much bigger than the Focus hatchback or Focus Wagon... Is it the replacement for the Focus or what? Or is it bigger than it appears in the picture and is actually taller than the Focus?

seems like it would do well against the Mazda 5, then again Ford owns Mazda aybe they wouldn't want to cannibalize the 5's sales...

Very similar lines to the new Mercedes...doesn't do much for me, but there must be something to it.

Interesting looking car. Kinda Mazda5 like. Not my kind of car, but nice looking nonetheless.

Are those  red wall tires, a la the old TR6?

Compared to the look of the Mazda5, I like this better.  But it's not a segment I'm interested in.
