There may be hope for a new front drive Ford sport coupe (aka Probe) if they do move the Cougar to RWD. Only if Ford still wants to compete in that market anyway... and they might not want to put out any potential competition to the SVT Focus.
Cougar is a Gen 3 Probe? Not really. Yes it did replace the Probe as a FWD sport coupe and it is built at the Probe's former factory but all similarities end there. The Probe was a re-bodied Mazda MX-6 with Mazda powertrains. The Cougar is built off of the Contour chassis with Ford Powertrain. The Cougar and Probe are both 3 door hatchs with FWD, but thats where any commonality ends.
