Isnt the H22 in a prelude??? I believe that the Focus would win that one just by weight advantage alone...Also...I Focus was brought out to compete with the Civic...As everyone knows there are more Civics hooked up in America than integra's, preludes and eclipses. That is Ford main target. To beat on the Civic. Yes, 92 was the release of the hatch SI but it was remodeled for a reason. They only stopped production of the 99-00 SI's when Ford released the Focus. Honda "knew" that the SVT apon release would own civics (stock vs stock) therefore they redesigned it back to a hatch. stock vs stock is funny because there are already more Focus part manufacters out there than my 420A eclipse. Even the manufacters knew it was going to be a beating so of course they made every possible part for it as they could. I also believe that the new focus is one of the few cars to give the Lancer Evolution a compitition in the Rally events. All and all it is a nice car and for all of you who said its ugly...check out the new SI. I dont like that thing at all. Isnt the shifter in the dash where the radio would normally be on other cars?? Im not sure on that but thats what I heard...
