Someone tried to test out the supposed pedestrian-saving unique construction of our hood.

Hmmm, that's right, shouldn't there be a body imprint on the bonnet?

Question

I just watched the video on demand report on wvec.com and they said its a mercury cougar but on the website text it says an rx8... Is someone over there smoking or just cant get their facts str8. God damn small market tv stations are idiots. If it is a cougar I wonder where the hell they got an RX8 from? They look COMPLETELY different?!

Hey, I caught that too.
Bad press for the 8.

You're right, put them side-by-side and they don't even look close.
Maybe they got confused by Ford's "XR" badging, but still inexcusable.
