in 03 the SVT focus beat the 03 SRT4 in car and drivers comparo test.

it beat the
civic si
mazada speed
srt4
se-r spec v

that must mean all the 03 models of those cars are wastes of space.

everyone tears the svt econo cars down because they aren't fast in a straight line.
Oh yeah and about the comparison, not to throw salt in the wound here, but I read the review on the comarison you are talking about and the SRT-4 beat everything in every category other than braking distance and weight if I remember correctly.

here is the link to the comparo where the SRT4 won. Can't find the other one, maybe it was road and track.
