To be honest, I quite like that. Didn't liek the original prototype shots but that looks pretty sweet even in that Green!

Only thing I am concerned about is when you try pushing 400-500bhp through it what it will behave like. I should think 350-380 would be easily achievable with minimum fuss.

Anybody know what blower they will be using on the engine?

Anything more than 300 bhp is going to be a 'mare through FWD & I'm unconvinced that 300 bhp for a FWD is a clever idea.

I'm still going to have a test drive in 1 though, just to find out.

Anybody else planning to get on their local Ford dealer's nerves like this?

Probably a good thing it ain't 4WD for me - I'd be crap in one. Child of the FWD generation

The more I see it the more I want it though! Hurry up pleeease
