To a large extent, this is because the X-Type's credentials are in doubt, as it's based on a less-expensive sedan Ford sells in Europe called the Mondeo, which was briefly sold in North America in the late 1990s as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique.

Essentially, not enough people want to spend $40,000 to $50,000 on a car with such humble origins, even if it's now wearing an honoured brand.

I fear this view point will be taken if the new Camaro is infact on Zeta. Seeing that it must start at or below 20k, and having Buicks with a price tag in the 40s. The anti domestic media will love that.
