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.

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..
