Kappa Fighting Cougar

[jsaylor]

First sketch..I used the Messenger as a starting point but this is a smaller car based on a rwd platform too small for a Mustang. While a definate departure from any of the Cougar's previous roles I think this pays proper homage to the original without crowding any other Ford offerings, like the Mustang or a potential Lincoln coupe, too much. A base four cylinder, followed by a V6 powered XR7 and topped by a full blast Twin Force V6 Eliminator sounds like a great lineup to me. What do you think?

As an fyi since it isn't easy to tell at this stage...the classic 'Cougar' headlight design and I am trying to convey includes the lights and the grille like the original design but in a different manner. The lights and grille are divided by the center strip in the headlights with the grille being below and the lights above.
