The focus svt is the best handling car I have ever driven. I was going to buy it and then install a supercharger. But the price on the redline was better which obviously included the supercharger. I have raced them and we are much faster. I loved the gearing on those too. Top speed in first gear was like 45. When merging on the freeway I downshifted to like second. So I did consider it. I like small cars, and the redline is too long for me.

I agree about the length (I wish we were closer to the eclipse) but I just can't get over the whole Festiva thing, sorry.....Are they really that nice in shifting and acceleration?

Good responses guys. Glad to see you guys are viewing my efforts in a good way. I just couldn't stand it any longer. The first stand is my objectives was to bring us together before it gets to far out of hand.

Now as I stated before, we really should bash on anyboby, but to merely remain competitive and respectfull. I'm all about the other guys car, but if he is a complete nimrod, then I just depart my own way...

So let the modding begin and the victories of our achievements prevail. Get some Redline folks...

They do the quarter mile in low 15s stock. The shifter I thought was pretty good. I guess I just thought the ratios were kind of fun--going like 45 in 1st gear is cool. The handling is what sets the focus svt apart from everything.
