It's not an American car...it will probably never come to America. Actually, let me rephrase that. I am 100% certain it will never come to America.

Are you joking? Hatchbacks are actually superior to the saloon/sedan type body for rally. Please stop talking.

I have a few choice names for you: Ford Mondeo, Ford Puma, Ford Sierra RS Cosworth, and Ford Escort RS Cosworth. Do you know any of these names?

The current Focus RS has been pretty much trashed on all the reviews I have seen (Top Gear and 5th Gear) so I would hope this one would be better should it ever come to conception.

Yeah, the Sierra Cosworth actually made it over here as the Merkur XR4ti. There was also a Sierra XR4i in the UK which was the cheap man's Cosworth . Of course, the Sierra Sapphire Cosworth or the RS500 never made it here . The Ford Mondeo was never anything special, even the ST didn't really shine. Now, the Escort Cossie was something else but it had to have that big stupid spoiler .

The Mondeo ST was basically the SVT Contour. "Big stupid spoiler", eh? I thought it looked okay. A little "picnic table-esque", though.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I love the Escort Cossie and, like I said, if I was to have one it would have to have the wing. But, it is big & stupid . Oh, it would have to be in blue too.... In fact, there was a guy selling one on here not too long ago; I think it was in Cali.
