OK, there isn't much information yet. This is it: First study to be shown in 2009, for the 40 year anniversary of the Capri. Sales to start Spring of 2012. Price ~EUR 20,000.- Weight ~ 1160 kg 2+2 seater, size between old Ford Puma and current Euro Focus. Engines: charged four and five bangers between 140 and 250 hp. Later an hybrid and a e-car. How much of this is speculation or conjecture, and what's going to be real is open for discussion  Source: AutoBILD.

The Capri looks way better.

Weight will be around 1160kg, just 100kg more then it's predecessor and with a range of engines between 140-250 HP. Might show up at the dealership in early 2012, but that's european market.

I won't look anything like that. Ford is the best car company out there at making pre-production models extremely ugly and disappointing.

I'd like to see the Production model of the Ford...and this thread continues to make me think the Scirocco doesn't look all that hot...guess its not a huge shame we wont get it here.

Yes Martha, you can get your new 2010 Toyota 4Runner with a 4-cylinder. As long as it's 2WD. And as long as it's with an old 4-speed automatic.

Thats not a rear window silly goose, it's the rear sun roof edit : I do hope it comes here and into the used car market so I can buy it at some point. RWD
