Cars they should have built:
1. Escort Cosworth Carbriolet

Im glad they didnt make that one personally!
Ford should have made the escort cosworth actually a car with modern technology, not just chopped up a shitty old sierra and put it in a pretty dress.
So on my list I would have:
An escort cosworth that was up to date with technology (evos and scoobies and skylines etc) at time of release

Without doubt in my mind, they need to revive the
Cosworth name in Fords..
the Focus RS is GREAT... as long as they just inteded it to be the new RS turbo... a proper cosworth is needed IMO.. 4x4 and 300 bhp +
4cyl and no penny pinching on the engine either!!!
proper internals just like the YB had (strength wise that is)
I say 4x4 cosworth/turbo focus

but why is everyone saying they should have made a certain car with 4wd???? WHAT ABOUT TRANSMISSION LOSES??
surely 4wd would make it less fun and more slow once on the go
