You've got that right... 80's Birds looking like every other car? Excuse me, but I seem to remember the 80's Birds looking nothing like any other car - they actually set the styling standard for the 80's and 90's. They beat the Tempaz twins by a year, and the Taurus/Sable by three. Everyone else was building kleenex boxes, Ford started the aero trend.
