this was sick. love his vids. cant believe he actually ate the tires all the way to the rims. damn...

 

Dang, that was some amazing driving!!!

 

maybe a focus rs ? http://jalopnik.com/5200370/305-hp-f...ing-to-america

 

I guess I just don't see it happening. Even though Ford has at least a couple of them here (both a green and white one have been spotted in MI sporting manufacturer plates) I just don't see Ford pulling the trigger on it.

I like the idea of the Fiesta better, too. The 3 door Fiesta is such a tiny and lightweight car. Pairing that with a more powerful engine would make it a blast to drive. We *might* get the ST version.

 

How is it Europe has the better AMERICAN cars too! We get boned both ways!

 

+100 I want a 3door turbo awd fiesta

Is the ST does make it to the U.S. and sells well, maybe a RS a few years later AWD of course

 

I drove like this into the dealer and they voided my warranty except all four wheels were ridin on the rims

 

Yeah I think a AWD/Turbo 3dr Fiesta would get some followers especially from all hype of these videos.

 

sick sick sick

 

I always enjoy watching these. I still watch the 1st and second one at times.




I was just going to respond with the same response.

 

That's why he's doing so bad in the real world!...still takes nothing away form the guy's driving abilities. My opinion is Ford picked him up as a marketing ploy!

 

Saw this yesterday. Def a good watch.


And yes, he needs to step up his game where it counts.

 

He definitely has driving skills.

I would agree with that. Any automotive company that wouldnt look at him for marketing would be stupid IMO. He has alot of followers and he definitely gets attention.
