Not to mention the fantastic job they did with the Duratec.

Yeah, put two of them together to make the DB9's V12, right? But the Duratec is quite versatile, actually. It's also used in the Noble...
 
I don't believe that its their dubious intent to create cars that are all the same; Its all about cutting costs across the board. That's why BMW bought high-strength transmissions from GM for years, and why Ford decided to co-develop with them for their new FWD setup.

I don't believe that it will turn in to some GM type thing where they have 5 cars that are all essentially the same. But you never know, we may be seeing more cars like what we're looking at if Chrysler survives where you have a FIAT with a Chrysler engine in it for sale, and then across the street a Chrysler on a FIAT platform.
