Beat out the Focus, Sentra, Neon, Prius......

This is mostly based on the 2 and 4 door, but the Hatch also appears in the pictures.

yeah I'm not big on either the SVT or Spec V but am curious how Ford was able to generate a significant amount more of torque out of the 2.0 Litre Zetec as opposed to ours. I think it has 145 lb/ft as opposed to our 132 lb/ft.

the focus svt may have more horses and torque, but hey get crap gas milage. I read somewhere Ford stated that this was their most advanced engine in a production car. I hate the way american car builders half step with everything. They have gotten fat and lazy.
Besides, our shifter is smooth like butter, and the seats hug you like fat aunt that hasn't seen you in a while.

LOL!:D - Its true though - I think the seats are the highest point of our cars next to the shifter.
