Un Ford Focus con motor V8 y 340 CV
Un Ford Focus con un motor V8 y 340 CV es algo que solo puedes ver al otro lado del Atlántico. Desde la soleada Florida, Estados Unidos, llega esta preparación sobre un modelo del año 2002. Según su propietario, se han invertido más de 34.000 dólares (unos 26.000 euros), aunque nunca se ha usado para correr. ¡Qué pena!

El Ford Focus fue un coche que cuando apareció en 1998 se convirtió instantáneamente en un superventas. En Europa equipaba un modesto motor 1.6 Zetec pero en Estados Unidos usaba un dos litros. Sin embargo, para este aficionado de Florida, se quedaba corto de potencia y por eso decidió instalarle un motor Cobra V8 de 302 pulgadas cúbicas, que rinde 340 CV. No contento con ello, realizó una conversión completa, cambiando la tracción al eje posterior y facilitando así la posición longitudinal de motor y caja de cambios. En el maletero se ha instalado un nuevo depósito de combustible y el salpicadero cuenta con nuevos relojes de medición (presión de aceite, temperatura de agua, voltaje de batería y tacómetro). El exterior se mantiene inalterado, con pintura verde de origen, salvo por unas llantas de Ford Mustang SVT Cobra. En total se ha gastado más de 34.000 dólares (26.700 euros) desde que compró el coche, en el año 2002.

Nota original en Ingles y fotos reales del vehiculo.
The Focus ST is a great hot-hatch. The problem is the styling minces no words about what that car can do, so you end up with all kinds of bros trying to race you on your commute. Now if you want something that blends in, but can lay down some serious rubber, check out this RWD converted V8 Focus.

The owner claims upwards of $34000 have been invested to make this mean green machine. The car was built by Tee's custom cars in FL and has numerous mechanical upgrades including a rear drive conversion, suspension, and electronics components, but topping it all off is a Ford 302 cu/in crate motor putting out 340 horsepower.
You would think with all that work and all that power, this car would have seen some serious action. But the mileage and condition suggest otherwise -

There are so many cars running around with silly wings, stickers, and fake badges all in an attempt to make the car "seem faster." I don't know who these people are fooling, but I'm always happy to come across a serious car that is all about the "go" instead of the "show."

Original car had 90K light highway miles. It was a 2000 purchased in the fall of 2002. The body and interior are all stock and in excellent condition. All original paint no dings no scratches, not even a hint of rust anywhere. A couple easy years on the road in Florida and has been in a garage year round since conversion. Never raced, only local car shows.
