Focus FPV GTP.

Plus that's just a photoshop/rendered picture, and a poor one too.

read what I wrote here http://fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=98044 but square off the front of the bonnet and throw some covers on it and it looks about like what I saw.

Didn't notice a bulge though.

Iosis Photoshop.

I think it'll be a cross between that and the pics in Wheels.

I'm sure the lights are wrong but the hood & front bumper will look something like that.

Whatever it looks like it'll be a winner !!

I was thinking the same thing, it must be a tight fit to get a V10 in there especially since it's supercharged.

Maybe they could change it to Hideous. Lets hope the orion looks nothing like that.

its no GT, but it still looks HOT!!!

I hope the Orion borrows some styling cues because that looks really, really good IMO.
