That and the fact that the design wasn't even close. A hot
engine would not have made much of a difference. Too many gadgets
and not enough car!!

Well,
It's not only the UK who has lame business managers.
Ford is closing the famous plant that has most recently been building
the retro looking T Bird. That plant will close in July and thousands
will lose their jobs.
This one is a combination of the business managers and the engineers
(maybe with business pressure) to not put a decent engine in the car to
make it a "true T Bird" that woul d actually sell and compete with
other cars in it's class...
