Kinda glad that Ford are taking the first step in introducing this. Seems like common sense to me.

This is going to create a new market of rich kids whos' parents bought them cars, who are willing to fork over more of their parents money to disable these things.

Way to help the economy Ford !

Hmmm, seems like common sense to me as well.

I'm kind of surprised they didn't introduce this sooner though. Rich overprotective parents will rejoice.

A 16 year old kid can still do a lot of damage at 80 mph.

I think it's pretty cool ... I remember when I got my car (180i Honda civic), I had to go test it at great speeds ... so we got on the highway and I pushed a surprising 220kmph (136mph) before the governor decided that I'm not allowed the last 2500 revs ...

I use to have a nissan 240sx before I fell in love with jeeps, and that thing was freaking awesome even bone stock. When I put on a full cat back exhaust and a real cold air intake and an ignition controller, it didn't get any faster but it was sure a whole lot more responsive on the throttle and got better gas mileage.
