Actually, Ford brought over one their Euro platforms (the Contour), complete with stiffer suspension and a bit more power than the platform it replaced (Tempo, blech). I drove one for a few years and was happy with it. Unfortunately, it hasn't really met with all that much sales success. Apparently handling isn't as important here, and the American idea of comfort (soft seats, booo, give me good supportive seats as they're more comfortable on long drives by far) is set in stone.
