When Ford sells the Focus FR200 it will probably become my new favorite Ford. A 300hp turbo 4 will put the hurt to most Mustangs and a whole bunch of rice! Good looking little car also and I like the seating position of the Focus better than the lay down type in most sports cars. More comfortable and better vision.

Crazy Horse GT 10-18-2002 08:24 PM

gotta say a 69 cougar eliminator, i love that body style, or the 67-68 cougar. ;) :D :D :D :cool:

2FastLX 10-18-2002 08:29 PM

I'm with you on the Focus. I haven't seen the FR200 yet, but my wife has a 2002 ZX5 and it's the nicest compact car I've ever driven. I love that little car. And it's pretty fast for what it is. I raced a guy in an S-10 Tahoe with a 4.3L V6 and smoked him with 2 passengers in the Focus!

1. AC Cobra - yeah, I know it's not a true Ford, but to me it is.
2. 67-68 Mercury Cougar - same as above
3. The Pinto I saw tonight. You'd all be drooling over this little masterpiece! (I'm being serious). Pics coming soon.

i gotta agree with you there too. but i found it was gonna be cheaper to build my own focus from a zx3 then to buy like a svt focus. after i talked to guy that would be modding it we both figured it would be around 280+hp easily, and for much cheaper than the svt focus.

'87-'88 T-bird Turbo Coupe
'99+ Lightning

I know this will sound crazy, but I liked the svt contours, especially 99 and up. I used to work at a ford dealership and had the pleasure of driving one....amazing ford could build such a great handling front drive sedan.
