Ugh, that is a ridiculous statement, no one paid off MT. The Focus ST is faster around a track than the FRZ, stock for stock. Once again, I am not arguing which car is better or faster. I am arguing that the people that bought FRZ did not buy them because they were the fastest, they bought it because it was the most fun. Thus, saying that autos are better because they are faster is an invalid argument whether it is true or not....
