I totally love it. It handles better than anything I have ever driven, and has a lot of interior room for both front and rear seat passengers. It has a lot of nice features, including an in-dash 6 CD changer, 290 watt amp, and sub-woofer in the trunk--all from the factory. Heated seats, power everything (except the seats, although the drivers seat has a power up/down feature), sunroof, AC, ABS, traction control, leather seats--it is basically lunked out. I have only seen like 3 other SVTs, so it is a little unique. However, there are a ton of Foci around.
The only draw back of the car is that it is a little slow off the line. Otherwise, it is very quick, especially on the highway. 6 speed trans, huge brakes, 17 X 7 wheels, and tasteful SVT body enhancements make it a pretty cool car--oh yeah, the best part: I bought it new for like $15K out the door, including a Ford extended warranty to 5 years, bumper to bumper, no deductible. I am in hog heaven.
However, I totally miss my Saab convertible, especially now that it is summer. I want to pick up a late model SPG (dream is '91 in Red) or get a 9-3SS (or 9-3X type model), when I get a new car. And the other thing--I am driving a Ford! Who would have thought...
