The sparkle silver paint on the snow tire package is just a genius as the transit van blanking plate.

You two belong together. You both have a fetish for ****ting in the punch bowl while jerking off to the Evo.

For those arguing over the price of a snow tire package: cut the **** and stop arguing for the sake of arguing. You're dragging a thread through the mud with mindless bickering over something that should have been handled like this:

Person 1: I think that's a great deal.
Person 2: I think it is expensive.
Person 1: I see your point. Sure you could buy it for cheaper somewhere, but for a dealer-provided option that's all inclusive, it's really not that bad.
Person 2: Yeah, I agree. We are both looking at this from a different angle, and both of us are correct from our perspective. Cheers mate.
Person 1: Cheers.
There, see how easy that would have been? The rest of us wouldn't have suffered through 40 posts of bull**** to get there either. With that said, let's move on to something more productive, shall we?

Looking at what Ford appears to have going here just shows how Mitsubishi had the Evo just right. Mitsubishi, what were you thinking when you discontinued the car? Anyway, Ford comes in with the same pieces to make the Evo people happy and gives us a hatch to make the bummed out STI people happy. Now, gas mileage in the thirty range - super. Gas may be cheap now but wait. Also, watching how the scribblers from the car mags are allowed to beat on the car is encouraging. I don't see any being towed off. Mitsubishi, what were you thinking? Now, just make the snow package a swap that doesn't increase the price.

"And I’ll take things a step further – it’s a genuinely significant car this, a potential game changer. From now on, four-wheel drive no longer means lumpy and heavy, it means faster, grippier and driftier. It means no less nimble, but a lot more versatile. The Golf R got the ball rolling, this moves expectations to another level. Dirty it may be, but the Focus RS is about to clean up"
