As far as a V8 rwd contour, I say cool, build it, I would love to see it. But to be honest, I don't think you will find a buyer, especially if it is the same price range as that V8 focus. There are many other cars you would spend $50k+ on before going after a setup like that.

Good luck man, and if you build one, please post some pics for us.



For that price?
Can you say 'almost' BMW M5??? I would be all over a car like that first and in a few years after I owned it I would be dropping even more power to the wheels. Can't say that a V8 contour could compare to it other than as a curiosity. Kind of like Andre the Giant was for his size and strength...one of a kind and fun to watch.
