So I'm guessing you would be bitter if a Focus owned your Cobra on the street?


Reasons for putting a V8 in a Focus:

1. Sleeper
2. 2500lbs
3. Sleeper
4. The "wow" factor when you open the hood.
5. Sleeper
6. Having the power of a Mustang in a car with quality interior and overall nice European fit/finish.
7. Sleeper
8. Insanely low insurance premium.
9. Sleeper



Putting a V8 in a Focus can be done for about half the cost of an '03 Cobra. Hell, you can do an '03 Cobra motor for well under the $68k. That inflated price tag is for a turn-key Focus. You give them the money, they give you an insane Focus. You can do it yourself for probably less than half that cost.
