Its a shame the CT6 never found customers. Its a very good vehicle.

I honestly think that if they had called it Elmiraj and not done those stupid "dare greatly" commercials that only showed the car for the final 3 seconds, that things could have been better. The CT6 was also easily 10-15% overpriced.

only the 3.0L TT-V6 Vsport & 4.2L TT-V8 & 4.2L TT-V8 V-series BlackWing versions are the gems.

the lower trims are fairly descent. the model has been largely overshadowed by today's trends for SUV's. it just came a really bad time for the market & industry.

Mustang GT350 & GT350R though not on list are discontinued and will be missed.

There's some real garbage on that list. The RLX was a crudely lengthened last-generation Accord and at double the price. The 4c is good riddance. It cost double what it should and the quality was abysmal. I enjoyed the Continental which was a darned good Hail Mary that reset Lincoln onto its successful path. I'll miss the Fusion which saw its greatest decline in sales from Ford calling it dead two years ago and consumers assuming it was no longer available. Ford and Lincoln having no sedans is not sitting well with dealers and in fact the chanting is getting louder.

That's 100% marketing. The GT500 needs its space and they recycled the GT350 into the horrible Mach 1 by deleting the great engine and adding on tacky decals.

Hell has frozen over I agree with Darringer. Ford/Lincoln needs to have sedans. I couldn’t not care any less about the others.

The Fit, Yaris, Sonic, and even the Elantra GT are great cheap urban hatchbacks that will be missed. The i8 could have been something had BMW stuck with it, doing a next gen, putting Formula E tech on the street.

Agreed on the i8, Alfa could have pursued improving the 4c as well to make it relevant.

I’m sad to see the Fusion go. I was always hopeful Ford would go more towards a European sedan strategy to gain style conscious consumers. Wish we would have had the prior generation Mondeo instead of the 1st gen Fusion.

Well you did get the prior generation Mondeo in the sense that the EUCD platform that the previous generation Mondeo was on became the CD4 with very little update. The Fusion was largely a restyle of the previous generation Mondeo.

Did someone actually say the Yaris would be missed?
