AutoWeek did a review of a turnkey car that's being produced locally. 600
hp. IIRC, they said it wasn't too difficult to drive once you got past the
launch part, and it still seemed to handle fairly well.

I've met the guy who makes those Focus kits and seen the car. The really
unusual and great part of the thing is to do the conversion with his kit
it
requires no welding. Pretty rare for this big a project. I would imagine
if
you went all out on a motor it would be like driving a funny car. I'd
rather
build a quality Cobra replica.

AutoWeek did a review of a turnkey car that's being produced locally.

What kind of car? The one that's being discussed or what?
Being somewhat familiar with overpowered cars since I owned a 1700lb car
with an 85 inch wheelbase that had a Ford small block putting out around 320HP
I would think a 2600lb short wheelbase Focus with 600HP would be a handfull
until 3rd gear when going all out.

The Focus. They had the thing fitted with an auto, for obvious reasons.
