the ford rs 200 evo. the fastest street car ever recorded from 0-60mph (2.1 seconds!). 650hp and awd. and there is one for sale!
   and if youre like me and have never heard of the car, here are a few informative sites http://www.pistonheads.com/doc.asp?c=103&i=7138 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_RS200 http://www.supercars.net/cars/3554.html --------------------  I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |

yeah i seen it b4 and read about it, but did they actually sell this car? and how much would one of the Evos go for 2day? i dont think $1million is asking 2 much.

its an old rally car, they have to be production cars in order to enter in rally. but I'm sure the street versions don't have the same specs... as always.
the best Fords (IMO) were not produced in the US, which kind of seems wrong to me. I like the Escort RS Cosworth This post has been edited by hurley97: Apr 1, 2007 - 8:50 AM -------------------- |

Toyota built an AWD either 3SGTE or 503E powered MR2 to compete with it, but only got 3? built before GrpS was cancelled. No apologies necessary, That's an amazing car. I wouldn't hesitate to have it in my garage [if only I could afford it  ].

I like the Escort RS Cosworth This thing is really sweet. And, the street versions of the rally cars were closer than you think. I know the Metro 6R4 and Lancia Delta S4 street cars were pretty wicked. I thought the RS200 looked like a 1st gen Tallon from a first glance, but it does share lines with the MR2 now that you mention it. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

I like the Escort RS Cosworth the reason the cosworth was soo good, is because i was only like half ford...the other half (motor...and i believe drivetrain) was build by cosworth for ford. --------------------  Kawi Love |
