Nice article. VERY informative. However, if you were not a rabid car fan like most of us here, it's written in a language that might be tough to understand. (Very technical)


Overall, Great article!

Nice article, but a tad too "look at me" and flowery for John Q. Still, a very good effort.

Note to FoMoCoCan: WAKE THE f*** UP. You missed the boat and let the damn Cobalt / Pursuit twins get listed. Quit promoting the current Focus as "sporty" and start giving it (and us Focus fans) a reason to live.

There, I feel better.

I'm still thinking of getting a Cobalt SS Supercharged just so that my insurance company won't give me much headache when I tell them that I have a supercharger installed (although the SC will be more boost than stock tho).

Thats exactly what I was thinking. My GF read the article and understood it 100%, that says a lot if you guys are saying THIS is technical. :ph34r: :lol:

I think the mustang was brought in because of its power to weight ratio....not because its a muscle, or sport compact car. The article isnt JUST about SC's, though the title would throw you off. :P

the article is based on "bang for your buck" whick i think eliminates the Eclipse, a fully loaded one is close $40k. more then the mustang with less power and FWD.
