Default Saleen Focus

Hey guys, i saw this saleen focus sitting at a lot by my house for around 20grand. I didn't really think much of it. I just now looked up the specs for it and i am surprised at what it has. 150HP and 150TQ isn't that great, but it comes with a 75shot direct port wet nitrous system! The specs say with nitrous it puts out about 225HP and 250TQ, not to shabby, and i am sure this car handles like its on rails, here is the link...

It would never take the place of the stang, but it would definitly be an awsome daily driver.

Thats a good lookin car.
There is one of those here in my town at Budget Car sales for 15,000. The sales man said this car will keep up with the srt-4.

They used to have 3 of those at the Ford dealership by my house. Ive only seen one on the road and it was driven by some old lady[8D]. I thought the rally version focus was the RS model?

But i think the rally versions only really have suspension upgrades. This version has suspension, exterior, interior, and performance upgrades. All for about 20grand. I also saw this has a flip-out dvd player. Definitly wouldn't mind having this as a DD!
