That was actually their April Fools joke for 2012.

A day early.

They should do it though. It would sell.

Which is a shame.

I remembered that immediately as well. I also seem to remember a disturbing number of internet commenters bought into it.

4-Door Dodge Charger - Yes. ...and they’re ubiquitous. The bottled water of cars. Even Police car variants.  

4- Door Mustang - Likely. There was a Shelby K-Car, so expect a Shelby variant of this one as well. (Heck, I’d bet you’ll see a Mustang-Badged Truck.)

4-Camaro - Never. With good reason.

Why ford never brought the Falcon over from Australia is the one of the stupidest things they have done. When the panther cars finally were put to rest, they should have brought the Falcon over here. But no, they piss all of this money away making the tauras and fusion. When they could have just shipped over the Falcon. Plus they could have brought over the Falcon based utes. We could have had the Super Pursuit over here.

Joke or not, I could actually see Ford do this. Could be the perfect car to go after both the Dodge Charger and the Kia Stinger.

Why yes, and I also renamed the address of the hyperlink so it looked 2019 instead of 2014. Just more fun with microsoft paint......

I agree. I owned a ‘64 Fairlane V8 in high school. It was a lot of fun and I bet a 2019 version would sell.

I think so too. Maybe in the past, the timing wasn’t right as they had all these sedans. But now, what else do they have to sell in the sedan range?

I am sure BMW sells triple the 4 series compared to the 3 series. I bet there are a lot of us out there that would welcome a smallish rear drive 4 door V8 sedan on both sides of the pond.

I think it would be just like when Jeep did the 4 door version, or Honda did the 4 door Civic Si. People just want sporty cars that fit into their daily 4 door requirements. I think it would be a very successful car for the investment.

Shame we won’t be getting it in the U.S., Ford also just announced they’re canceling all of their non-truck, crossover, and SUV models besides the Mustang and Focus. Unless this 4 door will literally be a 4 door mustang, it ain’t coming here.
