Yeah but how much will this NSX cost? I can tell ya now its prolly out of just about everyones price range on this forum...

NSX will be killer in performance and price. Of course. If I remember correctly, the new NSX will have SH-AWD, not RWD. They might have changed it recently, but I thought that was the plan. Still, without a midship engine, the new car will never be truly accepted as the new NSX (kinda like how the new Charger is only a Charger in name).

Well a Ford couldn't ever have "VTEC." It would be whatever Ford names it. and the new Focus sucks. You could buy the 1999 and the only thing you would be missing out on is the SYNC. And the extra 300 pounds or so in the new car. And the extremely ugly styling. That's not much to miss. What is missing on the new car is the SVT and the hatchback. The sporty little Focus has gone the way of the Corolla: Boring.

The Focus sporty? I always found them as little turds. The Cavalier or Cobalt can walk them all day long.

GM sucks. I hate Cavi's they are nuttin but issues. Cobalts.. Just a longer Cavi. Sure Cobalt SS's are supercharged but they are still slow and suck balls. Hahaha my youth group leader says his Cobalt runs 10's on slicks. Theres no way because hes only putting out 300 hp at the wheels..

The Focus was decent. The SVT was actually pretty good. And it is a rally car too you know, and a successful one at that. But whatever was good about the Focus is now long gone. Then again, the Focus (especially the SVT) always suffered from some weird Ford designing.

ford has only come out with two good ones. the original gt40 and the cosworth ford escort. and the concept gt90

I liked the Ford Indigo concept from years back. It's too bad companies like Ford (and Honda and Toyota, just to name a few) go racing and don't put any of that knowledge to good use. Only Ferrari and Lotus do.
