I have no desire to make it a power monster. I have plenty of other toys that do that. I liken the CT to more of a Briggs and Stratton Go kart VS a 125 shifter kart.

With the Briggs kart you just keep it floored and go around the track never slowing down for the turns.

I'm hoping to test drive one in Columbus when we take my nephew up there for a soccer match in 2 weeks. Have you had a test drive yet?

Havent had a test drive yet. hopefully in the near future. Been way busy at the shop to go to one of the other dealerships. I stopped by the one near our shop the other day and the salesman was horrible. i wound up walking right back out the door.

is kartboy going to be making anything aftermarket for the ct200h? i'm on nasioc from time to time, too...

Theres a good chance That way i can write off the car for R&D. Next we'll need COBB to make an AP for tuning.

The focus is not really a competitor, IMO. If you are OK with the Focus interior, road noise, etc, then the luxury interior of the CT simply isn't worth the money. If you want a really nice interior, the Focus won't cut the mustard. So, do you want a nice interior or is a nice interior not worth the extra money? Answering that question should quickly eliminate either the CT or Focus.

Personally, I want something that is a very nice place to be. This car will see 15k miles/year and I want to be very comfortable and relaxed during my travels. My last car was a Golf GTI. The interior is what sold it on me even though it didn't have the performance of the Mazdaspeed 3 and the Subaru WRX. It was worth the slight compromise in performance to get what was a much better interior. So, my next car needs to be as good or better than my GTI interior.

Hi Q, looks like NASIOC'ers are going to take over.
