If you dont like ford...come on in!!

Ok...I have one simple question...does ford have a sports car?? If they do...what the hell is it...cuz its not really sporty, whatever it is!....and isn't sporty than the muda fugin s2k!! thats for god damn sure!! so tell me...when are they going to come up with a sports car? or are they sticking to the american way? All those fat ass SUV's and trucks, made just to slow me and my reving monster down!! And the really funny part is...why the hell do those fat assed things even bother to get in the fast lane?? Do they really think they can accelerate fast enough to keep me from being bored and agrivated? ANSWER ME!!

Hot Love,
Stephanie

Previous generation Cobra is a pretty decent sports car. True, it may not autocross well, but it definitely moves.

I am not sure if it is what you ask but I like to drive this car for daily use

FORD FOCUS RS

Type: Inline-4, Turbocharged (Garrett)
Displacement cu in (cc): 122 (199
Power bhp (kW) at RPM: 215(15 / 5500
Torque lb-ft (Nm) at RPM: 228(310) / 3500
Redline at RPM: n.a.
Brakes & Tires
Brakes F/R: ABS, vented disc/vented disc
Tires F-R: 225/40 R18
Exterior Dimensions & Weight
Length ? Width ? Height in: n.a.
Weight lb (kg): n.a.
Performance
Acceleration 0-62 miles per hour s: 6.4
Top Speed miles per hour (km/h): 144 (235)
Fuel Economy EPA city/highway mpg (l/100 km): 20/37 (n.a.)


This is a turbocharged car that means( as you can see on the technical data) the torque is more than our cars

but I can't go to an elegant restaurant with this , it is more like
"Lets go to picnic " car for me

oh sorry I didn't see GT40

come on guys you can't compare that car with an S2K

GT40 looks cool but it still doesn't look elegant
and
neither the price is nor the performance is in the same class

you should compare GT40 with a VIPER or some european supercars

the focus rs is definately a very sporty car although i hate the styling of it no offense but ford also has the new shelby cobra that isnt in production yet i believe but kudos to carrol shelby and ford on that one and i also believe there is to be a new shelby daytona concept based on the gt



what ford needs to do is come out with something like the old awd sierra cosworth from the 80s that would toast the evo and sti the old cosworth came to the us as a 2.3 litre turbo merkur with about 175 hp but the euro editions were under the ford name and had 385 hp... i only know this because there is an antique car museum down the road with one of those in it but it really caught my eye when they said it had 385 hp and looked like an old escort

Focus is nice, but there is no other car that comes stock with as high RPM as the s2000, the Farrarri comes close but doesnt quite make it! Oh, and if any of you have ever driven the farrarri, you will know this too: I used to look up to the farrarri until my neighbor got the modena, and I drove it, and it does not even begin to compare to the s2000 with the way it fits like a glove. the whole inside of the farrarri rattles, which bugs the fuck out of me, and your feet have to go slanted toward the center in this long tube....its uncomfortable for even a petite girl like me.....i think they talk it up way too much...its not as good as i would have expected...i would choose an s2000 over a farrarri any day! (personal opinion)

Hot Love...

RX8 revs to 10K.

I doubt too many people would hesitate to dump their S2K in a second for a Modena and 'live' with a few rattles. Let me ask you, did you get to actually drive the Modena?

The S2000 is a great car, most fun car I've ever owned, but let's not get too off the deep end. Ford makes some crappy cars, but also some great cars in some market segments. Where is Honda's sub $30,000 300hp car? No reason to badmouth them.
