Low-to-mid level cars today are WAAAY faster than either. Crap, my old 5 liter ate everything thrown at it for lunch (except two C5's), and it was *barely* modified. The power response and punch on that thing was awesome.
Sad truth? The Neon SRT-4 would beat it. As it will probably beat the current generation Mustang GT.
Who wants to talk about a boring 15-sec quarter? Or a 14? How about 13's? 12's? 10's!!!. Geez...
For all the money we dump into our cars, they're still just commuters with a bit of pep. I can enjoy the light peppiness of my car, but never should I make the mistake of thinking it's fast.
In that sense, to talk of a CSVT destroying an RSXS, or vice versa is like talking about two fat kids running a marathon... who cares? Bah...
I think I should flip this car and get back into something with some power!
V8 power baby...

i just bought another 95 zetec MTX on friday. and today on the way home from the store, i was driving it and i realized just how fast these things are BONE stock...IF they are taken care of. they arent by any means slow cars...you want slow, drive a 1988 Geo metro ATX...the best quarter i did with that biatch was 28.6@ 62 mph it was my friends car, i just wanted to see if it was as slow as it looked...and yes it was a wagon. then i got in the tour to run a quater and it felt the tour had warp drive needed holding on to the wheel.
holding on to the wheel.
