New MG with a 385 hp Ford engine

I just read that MG introduced the X80 model this month at the Frankfurt International Auto Show. It has a 4.6 liter Ford V8 that can produce 385 hp in the supercharged version. The article also says that MG Rover is considering selling MGs in the U.S. Now the big question. Since we have never had to worry about MGs as competition before, and they are not considered "ricers", what derogatory name are we going to scream at them as they blow by us? Tom
