Why in the name of god would anyone NEED a 5.7L engine to drive around suburbia?! I mean - okay if you wanted to do a cross country tour dragging a sherman tank behind you, but ... !??!!

Btw, next car I get (hopefully the Ford Focus) will be a 1.4.

Bear in mind the distances American cars can cover. A Modern 'Vette's first major service is 100,000 miles!!

Ford Focus is a plastic car. Get a non-plastic car.

Plastic cars bounce.

Supposedly, that thing managed over 1000 HP.  Damn, what I wouldn't give to give it a test drive.
