Order bank for 2017 RS's opens this week :D

how long does it take for the car to arrive once an order is placed?

Oh look, Fatt Marah leased one. We'll see how soon till he trades it off :troll:

No word yet but id guess 6 months+. We already have 4 in our order bank. Also no word on how many Ford will allocate this time around.

i went to metro...

nice, but not for what they want for it :(

salesperson told me there are only 3 here, one i know was sold by key west, and the other i don't know... roughly 30 units total in all of canada.

I was told the dealership in salmon arm got one but doubt that's true. It was probably straight ordered in if anything

Here is the window sticker for the one at metro

There are 4 on the island and 3 in the lower mainland and a few up north. Alberta already has 8 of them. No salmon arm but its quite funny seeing some of the dealers that got one.

wow. and metro wants how much again? meh.

Cool car. 50g's cool? It's still a Focus. And I like Focii

Focus ST's already seem super rare. I guess spotting a RS on the street would be next to impossible with such limited quantities. lol

3 Ford expats drives the Focus ST and 2 has the Fiesta ST here at work:badpokerface:

lol the price of this car is getting out of hand...its still a focus and its still a ford...

I have a feeling the Type R is going to be as bad as this, if not worse.

^100% agree

Following in the footsteps of its cousin:

Is the Type R expected to be full production or limited?

i mightve already said this but isn't it 40k us? 50k cad sounds like a deal if no dealer markup.

You could apply that to any vehicle right about now, Canadians are getting much more new vehicle for the dollar than our American counterparts.

IE: My GT4 configuration is 107k CAD vs 96k USD, roughly 17k CAD discount or 15%.

Friend of mine might be out driving an RS this weekend, I'm going to see if he'll let me drive it :)

Matt Farah has it right. All of the other reviews focused (pun intended) too much on drift mode. Matt gave a good impression of build quality, power delivery, driving dynamics, adaptive dampers, etc.

no test drives....


but what if I dont like the way it drives..... :lawl:

just noticed the car only has front brembos and not rears dafuq is this shit?

also they don't get the same recaro seats as the euro version which are legit bucket seats!

^just found out you get the option in the states for rs2 package which you can get the recaro bucket seats with no adjustable head rest....Canada gets only the normal recaro ones with adjustable head rest...
