Some people are just idiots, like the ones that buy a Civic or a Fucus, and try and make them go fast, if you want a fast car, but something else... does ULEV mean anything to you?

The key word is LEV...means NOT FAST anything with low emmissions is not going to go fast...Yes even the SI's are slow comparitivly and that is a shame

What does that have anything to do with price difference and performance difference? The price of a modified Corvette and a civic si are quite large...assclown[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

ULEV is not the biggest freakin problem that it's made to seem. The new Aston Martin (I think Vantage or DB12) is classified as ULEV. Sure there's problems that will arise with keeping it emissions friendly but it doesn't mean we'll never see performance.

Joe I like you and you've got some good things to say once in a while, but your holier than thou attitude overshadows any sort of credibility you might otherwise be establishing for yourself.

Is your car running 13's without nitrous ?

Well, that happened to my friend's old ZX3 when he was PARKED. In fact he had been parked for 20 minutes in a secure video-monitored garage, and the bjtch just caught fire.......I've heard of other focus's doing that, but I couldn't believe it until I saw it. I'm pretty sure Ford already did something to fix that problem tho
