Cool. Dont get me wrong, I love Mustangs, owned two of them. I just want a project car. Something light and fun. Figured since this was a FORD forum, people would appreciate other fast Fords. Apparently this forum has become over run by douchebags though. Thats a shame.

Might want to do some reading.

The only reason I would declare this major fail is because its FWD and has (im assuming here) an open diff

Who cares? There are plenty of FWDs that will smoke RWDs. I dont think thats a big deal. I do have an open diff right now. Considering a Torsen limited slip but I am not looking to build a track car, so we'll see.

We do appreciate fast Fords, so I really don't see where you're going with this.

Well, I posted this thinking others would appreciate another fast Ford but all most people did was talk sh*t and say say "you still drive a Focus" etc...Sounds more like Mustang fanboy'ism to me...

And there will always be something faster RWD

who cares about what the fastest thing in the world is...


but for driving, rwd and awd > fwd

the handling and weight transfer is far better



My opinion is valid, I drive a Miata... and a supercharged buick regal thats fail wheel drive but 270hp
