I have never bought an american car but this one could be my first if it will be sold.

It might be fun, but probably useless without proper suspension setup and extremely wide and sticky tires.

 

not to be the ruiner of everything, but if ford does do that car it probably wont be that style focus. the 2005 focus is redesigned and it looks worse than that one. what is a pretty cool idea is to get a focus like that and put a cobra engine in it. ive seen that doen and its insane.

I found this one too. I am sure if you read the topic that they have put some serious effort in there suspension setup on the RS8. I hope they will make something nice as I want to spend some of my money on American soil after 8 foreign cars in 5 years. I feel guilty.

 

Holy shi t they sell the kit alone for the focus for $14995 from ford complete to change your focus to 420hp. haaaa I love those ford guys they have so much time on their hands.

 

Yes, they used to take a yellow Focus with a 5.0L to all the NHRA events back when they had the twin turbo focus drag car. The bolt-in kit isn't that new actually, the DOHC 5.0L is what makes it nice now though.

 

That's actually fairly reasonable money.

200x SVT + kit + euro RS bits = evil?

 

that thing is pretty fu_kin cool

 

I love their RS focus in England. they have a rally one I wish if they bring here but I guess ford has it's own crazy plans. yup very nice car for sure.

 

saw a review of it on 5 gear or topgear (one of those british car shows) and its really nice, especially the interior. Still its a hatch, and hatches can all go suck a ___k.

 

That car would make a great sleeper. Imagine one of those in ZX badges and blowing away most cars on the road.

 

that ****'s gonna tear everything apart on the street...

 

man i was hoping this was the rally version of the focus.. that'd be hot...

but this's fine... i guess hahaha

damn, i'd love to have one
