Ford shouldn't abandon their small car market. Most kids today who are hot rodding imports into tuner cars, could do some damage with that DOHC 4 Ford made (I forget the engine). I think they just need to market it better.

There is something to be said for a kid who can get 300+ hp out of junk yard 1.5L Honda using tons of boost and some other tricks.

Some folks just need to broaden their view. Tuner cars are no different than hot rodding an old Ford back in the day if you really think about it.
