Ford RS 200--best american car ever
Ok this is my first time making a thread and i thought i would introduce some people to the greatest american car ever built, the Ford RS 200. American manufacturers need to stay away from big blocks and build some truely quick and agile vechiles with effiecnt engines instead of these HEMIs. This car was used in rallies as part of the B group which is now non-existant.

Here are the stats:

650 bhp
2.1 litre engine
0-100 km/h in 3.4 secs
top speed 343 km/h (206 mph)

Not a very good first thread then.

Nice pics though.

The RS200's engine is powerful, but it sure as hell isn't "efficient".
