Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

ok so i was at the auto show, i dont even know how many weeks ago now, like 3? well anyways i was talking to a ford guy about the new SVT raptor and was wondering if svt was making a comback. he said that now ford no longer is "focused" on the new mustang that svt will be producing new vehicles. as for the actual vehicles he didnt know for sure, of course but he said there are rumors of a 2010 or 2011 svt focus or fusion. has anyone else heard anything like this?

Last I read it is cancelled. Too bad it sounded like an awesome car too.

that does sound like an AMAZING car! it sounds like it might make too much power for them to make though, they are looking at like 250+ hp and to throw a bi-turbo on it? i would love to either the RS or this fusion they are talking about. i hope ford gives us something to look forward to!

Yeah, the new tauras look cool (never thought I'd say that). I think frankjt was talking about this:

I looked at all the pics and It does look amazing. You would think that if you were unveiling a new car you would do a little better job detailing it. The engine bay looked horrible, there was scratches in the paint on close ups, and the dvd nav screen had dust lines in the corners.
