Ford SVT Focus availability?

Could find it on the 'net, thanks Mork.

Thinking about 'ricing' it out as everyone so politely puts it. Can't go wrong with a 4banger putting out 405 ft/lbs of torque - Cosworth Focus if you are confused. I just like the SVT, German 6-spd tranny, blue/black seats, revs up to 7,200 rpm! Chassis allows you to take corners hard also - 0.91g's.

 


<< Speaking of SVT .....

..... How many performance 'groups' does Ford have?

SHO
SVT
SVO
??? >>


SHO was a name they used only for the Taurus SHO which is now ancient
SVO is Special Vehicle Operations which is what SVT used to be.
SVT is the current and only performance group at Ford.
 
It is a limited quantity so you may be right, only 7,500.
Anyhow, went a test drove a Focus today, and I was impressed. Not just any Focus but dealer modded. Adjustible aluminum wing, wider throttle body. cold air intake, reprogrammed chip, headers through tip cat-back exhaust, custom paint and Millie wheels on low pro rolling stock. With factory and dealer warrenty! Nice rumble without being abnoxious, wonderful ride without being extremely stiff. Think I may have found my new car, 25k. Should have been the looks when I took it through Purdue's campus.

Ah! - That would explain it. Thanks!
