I just can't warm up to the front end treatment of this car, and I've really tried. Other than that, I love it.

I like it - might get one. I will not be getting those Recaros.
The main thing AWD does for me is use up gasoline. |

Why did Ford scrimp on Revoknuckle and now owners will be buying more front brake pads [torque vectoring hooplah]? Sheeesh!

ST has never had "Revoknuckle". This makes less power and torque than the Mazdaspeed... which doesn't need a "Revoknuckle" to put the power down.

ST makes a little less power and torque than the MS3, but doesn't the MS3 not unleash full power until you are like in third or fourth gear? I'll bet there is a reason for that feature!

The Focus RS is torque limited in 1st & 2nd gear too. It's a simple fact of life for a FWD car... they can't put massive amounts of power down.

very nice, i'm curious to know what MSRP will be.
Titanium starts at $22.7, base ST MSRP under $25? good deal for what should be a fun, practical daily driver. |

i have a hope it will beat the ms3 around a track. at least it looks 20x better.
in fantasy land, this will hopefully lead to the end of vw (and their useless excuses for a motor vehicle). CN: still needs moar fifth cylinder Last edited by thejordan; 09-26-2011 at 02:02 PM. |
