I stand corrected: we're talking about European engineered executive class grand touring sport coupes here, hand assembled in limited numbers in the UK from a combination of steel and composite materials, intended to provide North American drivers with a driving experience not available from Ford Motor Company.

I wont doubt that for a second. But I'll point out that often your words towards the car are a bit harsh. Even if said sarcastically, you should remember that sarcasm is difficult on a web forum.
