Many reviewers have applauded this car as the best in class be it comfort, drive , build-qualty or design, than literally all in this junior executive be it the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Ford Mondeo, VW Passat or even the BMW 3-series.

Only in price , has Opel lost the plot a bit ( or a lot) . It is almost 30% too expensive to compete well with its rivals.

Only time will tell, if this car is gonna finally pull Opel out from under the other much more vaunted German brands like Mercedes , BMW , Volkswagen and Audi.

will I want one? Yes to drive . To own? Give me a Volkwagen Passat CC or Renault Laguna Coupe , both of which costs thousands cheaper ....

Q.. ...See my point?

Bullish Ambition

Introducing : The 2010 Ford Taurus.

This executive car remains one of the biggest selling executive sedans in the world , right up there with the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.

These 3 titans constantly wrangled for the top spot in the US automobile market; itelf the biggest in the world.

With impressive size, robust technology, great handling, cutting-edge design and good affordability, it was a natural choice for the up-and-coming being a more viabily sensible alternative to the usual European premium brands.

That is until the world got crazy with soft-roader SUVS and MPVs.

Suddenly even a sedan this big ain't big enough. They were seen as frumpy even with a design so sharp.

Still,

Ford is not letting a legend die of any trendy circumstance so next year, we'll see a long overdue replacement to the iconoclast swoopy. Ford Taurus.

Indeed , it was a child hood fantasy of mine to ever take a ride in it. Or own one.

Ford is reviving its aging legends like the Ford Ka as well. Times like these call for desperately creative measures.

When it ain't broke, don't fix it. When you ARE BROKE (as in literally) FIX IT!!!!

Q... Just don't revive the Ford Model T, please.
