haha no the new one won't be gutted. It will stay the way it is. It's too nice to gut! Has quite a few nice options. heated seats, power everything, etc.
Yeah the 2.0 duratec in the mk2 Focus was setup for better MPG. Final drive ratio is probably geared towards mpg as well. Rated 35 MPG highway by EPA. Pretty stoked about that! My 2004 was only rated for 30. and i managed to eek out 35 on highway in summer, so Im hoping the new one will do a little better as well. Gotta get that ultraguage installed as soon as i get the car home! will be nice to have right from the start.
