Ford reveals today a concept - a new coupe cabriolet which answers the name "Vignale", a name of Italian designer who designed Ford models. The production car will be launched in 2006 and it will be The Focus CC.

hey arnab, got any info on the specs for this car.

tell me some of its competitors, then i'll decide whether its a yes or a no.

Stylish coupe-cabriolet based on the Focus

Ford has been without a medium-sized coupe or cabriolet since the Escort cabriolet as the previous Focus was only available as a hatchback. But the stylish Vignale is set to put this right. It’s based on the current Focus underpinnings – so will almost certainly drive superbly – and, as is becoming customary in this class, it features a clever folding metal roof. But as this isn’t Ford’s specialist area, the Blue Oval has teamed up with Pininfarina – the Italian small car producer – to help design and build Vignale; it’s the company that’s currently building the StreetKa for Ford.
