everything is perfect, except the interior. Seems a little bit old style to me.

Just so we're clear mate, I didn't say I agree with Fords rationale.

Seriously, I think a car like that would find a market, and I think something like that brought out with FPV would only boost sales. I even think bend-over-gover would have difficulty writing his usual list of nasties about it for fear of being ignored.

For the buyer who wants the best of the best, the 2.8H Kenne Bell mammoth is still the most powerful option on the 2010 Super snake. So now all three blower types are availible, and in these trying financial times in the US, choice is good.

Thanks Chris for answering that question. I was wondering the same thing. For those that don't understand why th 2.8 Mammoth KB would be used as the premium option over the larger capacity 3.4lt Whipple, would you be able to shed some light on this for us thanks? I know little about the 3.4 Whipple, but I do know the latest generation 2.9 version is a ripper.
