Yes, the PROBE-III. Cd 0.22. Which influenced the 4-Door, Ford Scorpio/ Merkur XR4Ti, Cd 0.34 w/o bi-wing spoiler, Cd 0.32 with.
The shorter, two-door sedans were Cd 0.33 with spoilers.
The Ford 'PROBE' production car, constructed at the joint-venture Ford / Mazda facility, took the 'PROBE' name, but none of the concept car's architecture.
