Hope so - only other option is your synapses and I'm really hoping you're not that slow

Soon to leave the XR6T family.

Put a deposit on one of these things a few days ago.

2016 Focus RS in Nitrous blue.

The wait has started.

I got extremely excited about ordering one of these however Ford are basically holding out to sell them for whatever people are willing to pay. Without naming anyone, I was quoted anywhere from 3k to over 9k above what I was told is Fords "retail" price. This alone put it just out of the budget I had set myself and am now looking at a 2016 Golf R instead, which strangely enough is within budget by a fair bit. I hope those who pay what dealers are asking for the RS enjoy them and that they are every bit as good as the reviews say they are.

Article claims that this baby ( Ford Focus RS 2016) has a roaring engine. Would you like to have one? What's the benefit in such a detail

I find it annoying when articles online don't have a date attached.  Reading it, that one was obviously written last year.

I actually drove a mates Golf GTI the other day and was extremely impressed! Had a lot more go than I expected when I put my foot down! Thing just felt super composed, smooth and over all confidence inspiring. Comfortable, quiet and the DSG gearbox was goooooooooooooooood!
