Re: Where has SVT gone?

Motortend had an article that mentioned a SVT come back. The article was more about Ford axing their V8 for a turbo 6, but it had also mentioned that part of getting the US market into the turbo 6 would be to build some enthusiasm for it by putting it into a couple of SVT vehicles first. They had mentioned a couple potential vehicles such as the Lightning, Fusion, and Focus
(tubro 4, not 6 of course). Then vehicles to get the turbo 6(in some case tuned down a little) would be the regular production vehicles that have die hard V8 owners such as the Mustang and regular Ford Pickups.

There is life after the Cougar, but the fast lane can be such a lonely place.
