Seems to have all these detergents and stuff to "clean your engine up to 5 times more than other brand oils" or something sounds a bit over the top marketing hype but who really knows?

VIXF6 New Member 14 Member For: 10y 22d Posted 28/12/14 09:20 AM Author Share Posted 28/12/14 09:20 AM How is this thing not a cult car? Apart from being a little nose heavy in the turns, this car just makes you smile all the time, the power and torque are incredible, just belts you back in the seat at not even full throttle and good braking with Brembos. At new rrp of $67k odd a little painfull. But a year or 3 old $35k to 45/50k for mark 2 low Kms what can compete? Full size sedan climate leather and the rest, makes me wish I'd bought one years ago.This is one spur of the moment purchase with no regrets.It's amazing they are not building these anymore.Anyway thank you to Ford 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's mainly the affordability though, otherwise everyone would be in F6's instead of the standard fare (which still crack).More or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
