First from Hemmings we read about the 2012 Mustang:
"The chassis could be shared with Australian Falcon and could spawn a sedan similar to the 427 concept car for the US market."
And now this about a new generation of Chevy Impala:

4 door? That's disgusting! Gee. How about a 4 door 'vette, Viper, or....????

Why not? If you don't like it stick with the 2 door, but they've had 4 door Falcons for many years now.
It's called a 'Pony Car' not 'Pony Cart'
think on!
Well, played :0) A Falcon is a sedan, no matter how hot you build it, and a Mustang is a sports car. If I wanted a sedan, I'd buy a Falcon or whatever.
Purists say if it has more than two seats and isn't a convertible it's not a sports car.

Keep in mind the more they build on the platform the lower the price can be, plus the more they build the more the aftermarket will support our pony cars.

Trying to reel in the riceburner generation who actually think that 4 doors are cool.
Or why not a 4-door Dodge Charger? Oh, wait a minute, that's one of the reasons I'm not considering buying one...
Of course. So make a four door version, avoid the Mustang styling cues, and call it something else.
As we know, that's the plan for the names -- Chevy's 4-door will be called the Impala. (We'll have to wait and see what Ford names their
4-door version, but I strongly doubt it'll be Mustang.) As for the cues, I for one don't have a problem with these 4-doors having some hints of Mustang/Camaro. In fact, I'd really like to see Ford build these:I miss New Mexico!

Have you ever sat in the "back seat" of a Mustang, Camaro, Firebird, etc? If you have for any length of time, I doubt you'd call it a seat. LOL :0)
Next you'll want a tailgate with a pop up third seat and a roof rack :0)

Chevy's had the concept for a while:
Yeah, a Mustang based Ranchero. Perfect.
Ah. I'd gotten the impression the plan was to name it a Mustang.
Keeping the styling cues is risky -- you want it to be clear the vehicles came from the same company for a halo effect on the wagon, without the wagon diluting the Mustang.
It's a good place to be!

Oh ANNNNNND.... Now the four door Wrangler.
Though, it is a spiffy looking rig, they took out the die hard straight six and are putting in the same V6 that's in the Liberty, it's not much. A small V8 would have been damn nice.

Still in an 06 Rubicon - this means I can go almost anywhere topless!

Now that's a shame. The straight 6 was bulletproof.
