I don't see Ford doing anything towards performance with the Focus, IMo, cuz it may be too competitive with their Mustang.

Just my take on it....

ditto

Its nice to see someone else has my own opinion. I just feel Ford does all this shit with the Mustang, 50 different types of different shitty Mustangs, and won't do a damn thing with the Focus. They've got the Mustang and F150 line shoved so far up their ass.

I could see how they want a line for entry level secratery door dinger. But I don't see why they can't just put a fucking decent engine and tuning pack(like an SVT?) on some of the new lines? Dodge and Chevy have both had a F/I compact in the last few years, yet Ford has not? I hope Ford can save thier ass somehow with the red headed step child they just released. But I don't see me owning another Ford for quite awhile...

Im kinda looking towards one of those pricey Volvos myself, the Heico Thor body kits is nice

That would be awesome. I took a c30 for a test drive last week, and it was pretty nice. I also took a mustang for a test drive. It was a nice handling, great sounding car.

6 Speed car or the auto? And were you referring to the Mustang or the C30 in that last sentence?
