Byline: Matt Davis

Henrik Fisker, who heads up Ford's advanced product creation in California when he's not busy as design director for Aston Martin, took five with our man about Europe, Matt Davis, when the two crossed paths at the Detroit auto show:

AW: Here at the Detroit auto show, what's the Henrik Fisker calling card since moving to the Irvine, California, design center in early 2003?

Fisker: The new Lincoln Aviator.

AW: Tell us about the Lincoln Mark X concept.

Fisker: That was pretty much done before I arrived. It's obviously just a redone T-Bird and is strictly a show car. Had I been in Irvine earlier, it most likely wouldn't have happened.

AW: What's up with the Mercury brand? Is there a pulse there?
