As a SVT Focus owner, I don't think either of you have very good opinions, but that's MY opinion B) The interior is nice for a $17,000 car. I have doubts you can find a small sporty car for under $17,000 with a better interior and amenities. I almost bought a Mazda3 and it's very nice, but the SVT Focus handles better and has more power. I've had this SVT Focus for two years now and haven't had any problems. You can rag on it if you want, but at least know what you're talking about

I didnt mean for that to sound like a pot shot, but I too looked at SVT Foci before settling on the 2003.7 Mazdaspeed Protege. I thought for the money it was a better deal, and more of what I would have ended up doing to a stock car in the long run. for 17,900 i think that was a steal.
Kenwood sound system
Racing Hart Wheels
Racing Beat swaybars/exhaust
Calloway Turbo
Tokico HP Struts
Eibach Springs

And thats all standard too..

Needless to say, it won't hold its own against an 05, but it is a fun car to drive. For the record, I've went up against SVT Foci and murdered them by 3-4 car lengths easily. That was back before I started working on mods too. [/b][/quote]
SVT Focus wasn't meant to drag race though and I'm sure the Protege is a nicer car with those options and perhaps a faster drag racer (I really don't know). SVT Focus is more of an autox car and it does it very well. I'm not flaming ya, just letting you know. The SVT Focus is my wife's car anyway, I have a WRX (well, had, I'm trading it in on a Mercury Mariner).

Shoulda...coulda...woulda...but I still say Ford should have built the 427 concept...

I think most of that styling went into the Fusion.....horizontal grille bars, headlights, etc.

Yes, it did but the most important part didn't go into the Fusion: the 427 CID V10!

That is very sharp!!!

Great work!!!!!

If the Cobra does come out like that (or something similiar) and is any where near the rumors, I will have to see if I can pony up the extra money for this incredible machine when it comes out. Sounds (and hopefully looks) fantastic.

That is beautiful. Looks alot like the Saleen though which isnt bad however i would think Ford would steer clear of Saleens design. But ya never know. One thing i want to see is the front bumper being rounded around the foglights like 94-98 Cobras and 03-04 Cobras. The Concept car had them too.

... BUT... it needs side scoops and louvers. Wider wheels and tires would help. So would a dark color.

Great job for sure!! My personal preference would be to leave off the side vents and I'm not real fond of the Saleen headlight treatment. Otherwise, sweet!! Make mine black please...
