As of late, Detroit Car Makers like Ford, Chrysler, and GM are in big financial trouble and losing market share to Toyota steadily over the years. A big part of the problem is that they are still focusing on oil-guzzling SUVs and are just slowly trying to catch up with fuel-efficient cars from Toyota, Honda, etc.
One thing that has always puzzled me though is why Ford never remake classic cars like Mustang, etc in their original form. It is obvious that classic muscle cars have character and are much loved by all, Americans and non-Americans alike. Yet the car makers opt to make modern versions of classic cars like Mustang that just don't quite hit the spot. Uh dudh, people love the classic cars for their classic design, not a modernized version of a classic car. So duplicate the original classic design as is and the cars will fly off the showroom floors faster that you can make them.
