It's simply a matter of popularity. There is a much larger, prolific Ford crowd that will either want it purely for what it is, or to turn into a high quality road-race-rally speed machine.<br>

I think you might be right, if you look in the background of the high bidder's last sale, there's a grotty looking RS2000...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=
