I'm a movie guy, and all that's been coming out lately is Prequels, Sequels, Remakes, and movies for already existing franchises, ie: Pirates of the Carribean, and EVERY COMIC BOOK MOVIE! It's strange, but i'm seeing the same fad in american car design. There's this huge trend in business that's working for the most part, and it's the idea that recognition is half of selling something. I think this ideal came from the dot com crash, if you didn't have a name, you were nothing, but we've still got the memorable ones, Yahoo, Amazon, etc. Now, take games, movies, cars, ANYTHING, and if you add something from the past, something you know already then ... bingo. I'm subject to it as well, i think the new 'stang is hot, but... i think 'stangs are shite so this won't change my mind. to me 'retro' its a publicity stunt turned common place in business. The T-bird is the sad proof that its simply selling tool, and a bad one at that, since its getting cut.
