Redesigning The New ZX2

Check this page often when there's new info from Ford ...

...We'll post it here!

History:

In the summer of 2000 we were approached by Ford to have a questionnaire (check below) for our visitors to fill out regarding a redesigning of the FORD ZX2. After several months of your input a design was created and just recently a show car was produced.
Note: This is only a show car.

We received the following letter from a designer from Ford

Hi
I'm a designer with Ford Motor Company.  Past projects have included the
Focus R as seen in Car & Driver and Sport Compact Car.  Our team has
been given the
opportunity to investigate a design "freshening" for the ZX2.  This
would not be a total-redesign, but an updating of the present car.

I thought it would be interesting to get input from the enthusiasts on
what they would like changed / improved on the ZX2.  I'm sending this
letter to a number of ZX2 sites.  Feel free to post this letter on your
site, or even create a "forum" for visitors to respond.

I really would like to hear from people who have a passion
for the ZX2 and where Ford should go with it in the future:
I look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

@@@@@@
