$35k would sound about right, to compete with the STi.

I still can't decide if I'm going to jump to this and change my EB order. I've got a couple more months to finalize my order so hopefully there will be some more "official" releases from Ford before then.

I just wish there a bit better colour selection. None of them are really 'WOW' to me

Definitely think we'll see an EB bump in the '17s. I think Ford basically made the '16 MY just a hold over till they knew what Camaro was doing.

'17 is going to be a very interesting wait. I wish Ford would move up their dates to summer release vs a fall release. A mustang shouldn't be released in the fall.

Stop. Just stop. There has not been a single thread where you have not talked about this over-hyped ugly car. This thread isn't even about the Mustang and the RS will shit all over your beloved V6 Camero. Just stop.

I'm sure it's a great car but at the end of the day it's still a focus. It just looks like one that's been customized by a teenager. You'll never be able to explain to people how cool your car is because you bought the rs focus. All they'll see is a tricked out focus. If you want a hot hatch why not buy a fiesta st? Those things are fun and cheap.

I guess you don't understand how special a Focus RS really is. It's not "just a Focus."

I had a fiesta st at one time. Yes it had a different motor and suspension but it was still a car engineered to be an economy car first and foremost. Until they build a focus from the ground up with the idea of it being a sports car it's a tricked out focus.

He was right, you're wrong. Find me another Focus imported to America. ST and RS are not on the same playing field as each other, not even the same game.

What's the difference? Still built on the same platform I assume?
