was this the one where clarkson is driving around Detroit? I bought a motown best of cd because that episode was that good

This car is a wild drive. It may have worse economy, but it has more than twice the power....Which would you choose?

I remember putting it to the floor in 4th gear at 35mph and it stepped out on me. This is an incredibly powerful car....probably the most powerful I have ever driven.

This was a pre-production test model. The production models were essentially the same, and yes the rear bumper was mounted further out on this one than the production version.

My stepfather works for Ford, and I have been lucky enought o drive a few cars before their debute, and certainly cars that I may never be able to afford... I get to see quite a lot of new cars in pre-production, and production form, as well as talk to alot of engineers....but lets just say there are many on this board that would prefer to argue every point made, despite whether they have valid information themselves to counter. Here's another pic.
