I found it funny how you can sit in a 100K+ msrp vehicle @ the Vancouver Auto show and they left the Focus RS locked

at that time, i think that was one (maybe two) RS's in north america doing the show tours, so ford couldn't afford the risk of anything happening.

Same. Saw one in Nitrous Blue and was all like "the colours pretty cool "

Then saw a Yas Marina M4 and forget all about it

But seriously though, more manufacturers should play around with this blue. Its dope

That was just current landed vehicles. My list is now only showing 2 which means people have taken delivery of them and they are driving around. More and more are coming in each week. Each dealer will get one, heck Terrace Ford even got one. We got lucky and have a second one on the way.

The styling cues of the Focus RS remind me of the Neon SRT4.

Looks waaaaayyyy too boy racer in person.

Saw a Focus RS in Osoyoos this weekend.. Really nice looking car, still super hard to justify the price.

lol, I agree the RS looks like a boy racer car. I guess that's why the Golf R exists... the boring looking sleeper hatchback. There's a car for everyone.

Was it blue? I've seen a blue one parked outside the same dumpy looking house in Kelowna for the last few weeks.

I'm still trying to figure out if this is like the SRT4, it trumped all competition at the time, lots of praises from magazines, but because it was a dodge, it died a pretty horrible death.

I dunno man...and at this price tag too..

amazing. Right now there is only one 2014 ST on Craigslist for 27k, and it has 10k more km than mine.

Everyone who has em doesn't want to sell them.
