That's the Australian equivalent of SVT. My friend in New Zealand has a Falcon XR8. Loves it. If it's a good platform, why not USE it? You've done the engineering, if they share parts you save cost.

They say the reason that we don't have the Focus RS here is because you'll piss off the Mustang owners having another car as fast. Geez, are they truly that insecure? I don't think so, at least I would hope not.
