RE: mustang vs. focus
I'm not sure which model you got, but the one I rented was probably the cheapest one. It had power everything, but it didn't have cruise control. Just the experience of driving it is nothing special at all. The seats are uncomfortable, the interior is not appealing, neither is the exterior, just not overall fun to drive.

silver, i know he had from what he told me "full bolt ons" he also had the ford emblem in the grill replaced with SCT (as in the tuner) he said he had a custom tune from them or something. Also pointed out in the staging lanes that i had no chance against him with my auto mustang.......he ran a 14.6 i ran a 13.78
....................I thought SVT was a division of Ford, or at least run by them.....guess i should keep my mouth shut
.....but i agree, Cobra, Lightning truck were SICK cars and deserve the SVT badge , its kinda sad as a domestic fan to see Chevy slapping an SS badge on everything these days.....im waiting for them to put SS on a malibu sedan, drop in a V8 and call it a Chevelle SS
.............there was a time when "SS" ment something
