Default Focus RS confirmed and Teaser

I'm excited. With just a tune the 2.3L Ecoboost in the mustang is hovering around 300 to the wheels and 340ish ft lbs to the wheels. This is before bolt ons and the RS will have the same motor. Forged rods and crank.

If it is indeed AWD and gets near 30MPG, I'm getting one for sure!

Hopefully not. Functionality > Aesthetics in this case. It's a family car!

I personally think its very cool. I never gave ford, found on road dead, a chance. I'd personally would rather have a Japanese awd sedan or hatch; but the performance factor is this car seems promising. I hope the car will come out looking aggressive!!
