I think only the Cobra and Lightning will be SVT vehicles from 2006 on.
It WAS considered an SVT vehicle, though only a single one was built. It was a heck of a fun truck to drive though.
Cobra and Lightning are the only future SVT vehicles that have been acknowledged, but it doesn't mean that's it. We'll have to wait and see what they come up with down the road.

Ya there use to be one that came in the dealer I work at. Pretty cool, I was trying to find one not to long ago to buy, but no luck. There rare and still fairly expensive. But even with the S/C they were still a little slow. I was hoping that the new explorer would get some treatment.
As far as new SVT vehicles, as well as the Mustang and L sell. I am still a little surprised they haven't attacked the sport compact/wrx market a little more. I would love a new style Escort Cossie . But maybe Ford recognizes it as a fad, and may just move on to the new fad, via Stang.

Yeah. I saw one of those on the WI-IL border a couple months ago on 173. Looks cool, but it's still an SUV. No match for a Typhoon.

carefully place your fingertip over the Ford emblem and you have the concept drawing for the CTS. 
I like it, but then again, I LOVE the CTS (with a V at the end that is..)
