the puma is of course the cougar and the cougar looks like an RX-8 rip off to me
They got their pics backwards...the pic of the Puma is actually a Cougar and vise versa
From a small cat, we go to a bigger one. This elder sibling of the Puma was not half as fun as the smaller one. Partly because the 125 bhp 2000 CC unit is underpowered for this rather large car built on the Mondeo platform
Yeah, I think he's right. That's no mondeo platform mate. Looks more like it shares the Focus or Ka platform.

Ok i was just browsing looking through pictures so
Yup, the names don't match the pics. The Puma is actually the size of a 1980s Honda CRX. Pretty neat little car in person, better than any Civic.
You've seen said puma in person?
You see a lot of interesting cars when you visit the Barnes and Noble in Dearborn, MI at an odd time of night. The Puma was pretty sweet, had a lot of style and looks like it would handle, steer and brake like a go-cart.
Oddly enough I've been to Europe a coupla times, never seen a Puma or a Cougar. Hmm, that's pretty wierd now that I think about it!
It looks like a less traditional focus to me looks like it would be kick ass in a hatch back 2.
Puma's are great!!!
Taste's like chicken.
