Why didn’t you ride in a V8 Mustang instead? /s

Was there drift mode fun?

Did it have a plate that said “STI” on the back?

No, sadly, the little course was too tight to drift

Eh? Would I take it over a STI? Absolutely. Would I take it over a Mustang GT/Camaro SS at the same price? No. It’s still a Focus. The best focus? Absolutely.

I just want my exhaust to sound like it. Idk how they made it sound good, because the Mustang sounds mediocre

Blacktop Nationals car show Ford ride and drive. Fill out a survey, drive two cars, and ride this or a GT350.

It was alright. Quick, sounded good. Still a focus

It’s not bad. Felt similar to my Mustang

Hm, Interesting would you say it’s about equal or better? Also how would it compare to a Mustang GT?

I mean, you’ve seen the numbers. From the passenger seat I felt like the torque was on par with the Mustang, but a bit stronger. I think the GT lacks low end torque in my experience, so it’s different.
