For the record I love my svt focus. It's a blast to drive. Sure it may not be the fastest car in a straight line but it's a helluva lotta fun when on a winding road. Go ahead and take one out for a test drive....don't take my word for it. When I was shopping for cars I test drove a sentra se-r spec v, golf gti 1.8t, civic sir hatch and a celica gt-s. I found the svt focus to be superior in both performance and feature content for the $. It just feels like a tight well thought out package. And if you do want more straight line performance just get an s/c or turbo 'cause IMO everything else performance wise on the car dosen't need to be touched.
