The SVT team built a V8 Focus as well. I beleive it had the Cobra motor in it, pushing like 500+ hp! Dang, you could scare the crap outta some people with that car! There's also a conversion for the Ford Festiva which allows you to make it mid-engine equipped with the SHO motor! Wide-body kit and all!An LS6 Vibe would be exciting! only make it AWD! Or maybe even a Turbo V6 from a Syclone/GN!

I remember that Festiva kit from years ago. Was in Hotrod Magazine, I think.Car was a banana yellow Festiva that they called the "Sho-gun"

Less horsepower though. It does look nice, however.Imagine this with a Focus V-8:Sitting at a light and a (insert ricer of choice here) pulls up and wants to race.Muahahaha
