[QUOTE="GTSpartan, post: 16203826, member: 21531"] These days in the automotive world, with a total obsession and focus on leveraging scale, it will be extremely difficult for a single model platform, selling somewhere ~100K or less a year, to stand on it’s own. The numbers just don’t work out. FCA model has worked out brilliantly. With relatively modest updates over the years, they’ve been able to keep their offering relevant. Ford and GM dump unimaginable amounts of money into all new generations, only to see their sales drop off a cliff after 3 models years. Rinse and repeat. It’s a vicious cycle. I think it is very likely that the next gen stang utilizes a shared platform. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. I know we like to give the new Camaro a hard time, but it sits on a fantastic platform that is shared with other models. It can be done. [/QUOTE]
