I have one word for this car:

Ew.

[ifcar]

I don't care for the headlights, but in general the car has a more sophisticated appearance than the more New Beetle-esque original. I like it.

[TheIntrepid]

It's an improvement. I see a Freestar front end though.

[Raghavan]

I like it.

[Raza]

The front's a little awkward, but it's not too bad.

[Secret Chimp]

The previous one looked like a rounded-off unhappy turd, but this doesn't look much better.

This is the Brizillian Ka, the 500 based Ka will be different from this.

500 based? Ford 500 or Fiat 500?

[ifcar]

500 based? Ford 500 or Fiat 500?

Which do you think?

[TheIntrepid]

Which do you think?

I would assume Fiat 500 but the Ka is made by Ford.

[ifcar]

I would assume Fiat 500 but the Ka is made by Ford.

What makes more sense, an upcoming subcompact car based on a popular subcompact car, or an upcoming subcompact car based on a discontinued full-size sedan?

(Hint: Only one of the answers is the slightest bit plausible.)

[CALL_911]

I would assume Fiat 500 but the Ka is made by Ford.

Trep, did you HONESTLY think that Ford would base such a small, inexpensive car on the Five Hundred/Taurus?

Maybe it is questions like that, that gave him 30,000 posts.

[ifcar]

In all seriousness, it was posts like the one above that got up to 30,000.

Sure, Mr. 33128. Most of yours are "Nope" or "Buick yes, Park Lane no"

[ifcar]

But I also don't go around boasting "look how many posts I got, and they weren't from post whoring!"

[CALL_911]

Sure, Mr. 33128. Most of yours are "Nope" or "Buick yes, Park Lane no"

But those aren't indicative of his not knowing what he was talking about.

Now if I'd said "Buick Park Lane is correct," we may have a problem.

[TheIntrepid]

Very true. Iffy answer my background guesses in Spotted Today

[CALL_911]

Iffy makes a funny. 

[TheIntrepid]

Now if I'd said "Buick Park Lane is correct," we may have a problem.

Yeah. You're supposed to say "Correct, Next (AMERICANS/CANADIANS GUESS ONLY AT THE BACKGROUND CARS):"

[sandertheshark]

Brazilians make fine-ass fashion models.  But not good-looking cars, I'm afraid.  That looks poorly construed from every angle.

[Eye of the Tiger]

I'd hit it.

[SVT666]

the wheels gap makes it look like a 4x4.

Because that's not cool? 

[280Z Turbo]

The grille looks bad. Very 90's.

I'd almost rather see one of Ford's fake chrome grilles on this.
