i'd forgotten how ns was a bunch of subaru fanboys. Anything he did in a subaru would be praised as amazing, but now that it's in a ford, he sucks.

people can talk all the shit they want on ken block's new ford. the new fiestas stomp the shit out of the subarus. look at kenny brecks ford in the last x games. block even admitted that the fords were fast as shit coompaired to the subarus when he was driving for subaru!

why because he's chasing his dreams to compete in the WRC and subaru wanted nothing to do with the WRC? You're a dumbass. Just sayin.

He wants to win races in the WRC.  Subaru apparently doesn't want to do that.  Ford seems like a pretty good replacement.  He does more than just spin in circles...

1.his driving skills are so unbelievable, he would be able to drive the piss out of a fucking honda.

2. that ford looks gay WAY before comparing to any subaru, especially his old sport wagon.

3. i wonder how much that contract was for him to hope on ford? YIKES.

Helps to have hundreds of thousands of research and parts into it as well. But did anyone see the guy who won the rally in a $400 car from craigslist?

i hate ford so much

mainly because the heir to the ford company goes to my school, yes he his the great great grandson of henry, and he is the worlds biggest douchebag, like it would take serious practice, skill, and perseverance to be douchier than him

it's made me hate all fords except for f-350's because you can't hate f-350's

except you're still missing the point.  all that research and parts won't produce the same results as lets say, you driving the car compared to ken block.  

and secondly, that 400$ rally car was grossly exaggerated and technically, not true.

i think it's good he switched over. maybe this deal with block will help ford out and therefore stimulate the economy. more people buying american cars instead of shitty subies!!!!!

naw man im with ya.

subarus are past their prime as far as body style goes. 2005 was my last fav. this new one is gross.

as far as actual functionality they have gotten a lot more techy(so i hear) especially with the STI series(obviously).
