Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / October 2006Four-Door Mustangs/Camaros Coming Soon To A Showroom Near You
First from Hemmings we read about the 2012 Mustang: "The chassis could be shared with Australian Falcon and could spawn a sedan similar to the 427 concept car for the US market."

Purists say if it has more than two seats and isn't a convertible it's not a sports car.

(We'll have to wait and see what Ford names their 4-door version, but I strongly doubt it'll be Mustang.) As for the cues, I for one don't have a problem with these 4-doors having some hints of Mustang/Camaro. In fact, I'd really like to see Ford build these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6638712574&ssPageName=MERCOSI _VI_ROSI_PR4_PCN_BIX_Stores&refitem=300001979287&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=closed _view_item&refwidgettype=osi_widget > New Mexico State University I miss New Mexico!
