Default A4 rip-off
Saw a picture of this euro-only Ford in yesterday's LA Times. Designed by an ex-Audi designer.<ul><li><a href="http://www.fasterfords.com/mondeo_st_concept.htm">http://www.fasterfords.com/mondeo_st_concept.htm</a</li></ul>

I'm not sure how it's an A4 rip-off. The rear screams Benz.

Default Wow thats old! The station doesn't scream Benz, it screams Titanic! :)
I've even test-drove the sedan before I ordered my A4 last year. But I didn't like it at all, its a class lower than Audi.

...the Mondeo is quite common here, but it never reminded me of an A4, btw. No resemblance whatsoever if ya ask me.

the rear end of the sedan is a mix of a Merc C-class and a 9-3 Saab!

from some angles, the passat and the mondeo look very similar.
