Seriously this is the slowest car I've ever driven, my 82 Jetta completely spanks it, probably doesn't help that I have a 200lb box in the hatch either. Not to worry in 4 years I will be out of warranty and can drop a V8 kit into the car (there is a motor mount available for the 390hp Cobra engine already) Mmmmm.... 390hp Focus.... oh wait, I wouldn't have the plugged exhaust, and would more than likely have a new pulley for the SC... mmmm... more than 390hp Focus...
Either that or I fabricate motor mounts for a Chevy LS1 (or whatever they have out by then) and throw a couple turbos on it... mmmm 700hp Focus wrapped around a telephone poll after 10 minutes...
What are you you saying??? The heck with the Chevy motor. Keep the Focus all Ford, man. Thats just wrong
