[QUOTE="Bill Ellis, post: 573798, member: 59929"] Have to admit this has been pretty entertaining. Seems we have here a battle between the "stone throwers" and the "Master of cut-and-paste". Yep, Ford is copying features of the RL. Honda copied, in-whole, the notion of the SUT. Manufacturers have been doing that since the first guy came up with the concept of a spear, or wheel, or water-lift, or boat...........So what. Fact is, there is no way to objectively evaluate whether or not the ST or RL is truly better than the other. They are different yet much the same. The RL didn't exist in 01, 02, 03 or 04? so in those years there was no comparison. Honda realized that there was a market for such a vehicle only after viewing the success of those already on the market. They added some improvements just like Ford will do with the 07 ST. Standard practice. ST owners have problems, RL owners have problems [visit their forum]. All vehicles have problems. I like my ST and when the time comes to replace it, I'll look at what's available at the time and get what I think is most suitable for my needs. By then, that just might be a "middle aged crazy" sport car. [/QUOTE]
