Looks like this is, at least partially, starting to happen now.

Then there's that poisonous attitude toward anything with a Ford badge,(l know their not perfect) when the current Mustang was released most overseas journos rated it pretty well where as here the reaction was pretty mixed. I reckon a lot of its motoring journalists trying to be controversial/media beatup to justify their job.
