Rumored: Euro Fords In The US

It has been rumored that Ford will convert at least three truck/SUV production facilities in North America as soon as possible to produce Ford models currently sold in Europe.

Auto Savant claims that sources at Ford tell that another plan being considered is to keep making the first-generation Ford Focus currently sold here in the States, and also make the second-generation Ford Focus currently sold in the rest of the world and sell the two alongside each other in the US for a while before moving to the second-generation Focus exclusively. The original plan was to wait until the next-generation (third-generation) Focus was released in 2011 or 2012 to accomplish the synchronization of the Ford Focus on a global basis, but it appears that plan has succumbed to defenestration at Dearborn.

Well i think Euro Focus looks much better than the US one. But i'm not sure if they can sell both models side by side. What's your opinion?

Spy Shots: New Euro Honda Accord

An Autoblog reader has snapped the new Euro Honda Accord on transporter in Slovenia. While the taillamps are mostly obscured on the white car, the dark one in front of it fully reveals the taillights. Overall we get a pretty good sense of what to see when the car makes its debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month and as the new Acura TSX (probably in New York).
