    i almost hope it is because the ones now will be worth more. Plus they will probably do like the lightning and bring it back in 2 or 3 years supped up to all hell and back. Cause the lightning came back supercharged and with one mean suspension.

    Ya.............i would hope that they discontinue it. you cant put a price on rare cars ......the retil value of svtf would hold strong than if they just kept pumping them out................imagine what the resale of a gti would be if they stopped that line way back..........the downside is that if aftermarket manufacturers know this....they might hold the line on developing performance products for the svtf.......it's kind of bitter sweet???????????

    We can still compete with the v6 stangs and camaros who see JUST a focus sitting next to them at the lite. Those are my favorites.

    I know this is an old thread but don't you think that they would have to discontinue it to upgrade to the new focus platform which is due in 05.. give it a year mabye 2 for development and it will probably be back.
