Fords done alot, I think they have made some serous mistakes. Out here the sherifs only buy from ford to let you know, same with LBPD. My t-bird has had 52K miles of pure hard driving, and only twice did I need repairs. a 35 cent rubber washer, and a $50 part, thats it. But i'll be one of the first to step up and say "ford need to relearn how to build a car" They come out with many good vehicles, many soild cars, but how they put them together is really hard to work on in comparison to other makers.

According to Car Math

Zx2 15.54 Quarter

Si 15.01 Quarter

Only difference is, the Si dosent have torque to match its HP which is what this program assumes, now, if you level it out to 145hp for the Si 15.51 that sounds a lil better. Well now, lets look at the cars which are same price grade and car type

Focus SVT -14.72

Civic Si- 15.01

Now the SVT is still several grand cheeper.

You can argue that the Zx2 is the debate, but lets make one

2002 Cobra
2002 Civic Si

Who do you think will win that one? Oh wait, NSX will still say Si because honda is better than ford...I see.

Numbers speek for themselves people, the Zx2, which is several classes lower than the Si, still is a match, the SVT Focous which is the same class, wins the debate, and is still cheeper. :bandit:
