I just read the John Coletti book and how the Terminator came to be produced. Fascinating especially when the proposed 02 Cobra, driven by Coletti, couldn't shake an SVT Focus... Coletti cancelled the car on the spot, and began the design of our cars. The Manley connecting rods saved the project...and cost $ 56.00 each vs. $6.00 each for the the previous Cobra's rods. Lots of pictures and info. at ironfistleadfoot.com. A fast fun read.

i'm reading it now. i like the comment about improving the exterior of the '01 shouldn't be a problem. they talk about how the '01 hood sucked, i always agreed when i had my '01.
