Holy tail lights, batman!

The way cars are going these days, they should just make the front half all headlights and the rear half all taillights.

If it had AWD (like the RS from back in the day) I would buy it in a heartbeat. It would make an awesome grocery getter/DD.

This.

Nice job! Ford is definitely on a roll. Under $25K this would be a great daily commuter. But FWD arrrrgh!

When is Honda going to update their 2002 K20 engine from the RSX Type S?

200HP was nice 8 years ago, not so much today.

Man, Ford is working hard at earning my business. At this rate, my next car is going to be a 5.0 Mustang or this focus....or heck even the new F150 entices me.

I'm still keeping the s2k of course

ST.......

couldnt have anything to do with the similarity of STI..?

? I don't see the connection between Subaru Tecnica International and ST. Ford has used the ST moniker on several cars. I would rather it say SVT but this wasn't an SVT product (the Focus SVT wasn't really either).

8 years ago? Try 1997. Honda has held the "200hp is all you need line" since the last gen Prelude debuted 14 YEARS ago!

No mustang until they get rid of the plastic door panels.
