Perhaps, but they've been solid little platforms that can take a beating. Consider videos.streetfire.net/video/WRC-Craziest-Moments-Part_143597.htm Tough video to watch, considering it's got a lot to do with Richard and Colin... Check out the Focus content at the 11:18 mark...
perhaps if we got the euro spec focus with the cosworth it probably wouldnt be laughed at so much here in the states

The Europeans have had a turbocharged Focus RS for many years now. US emissions laws tend to prevent us from getting the really cool stuff

ficksed for you.
Erik P. Official 2GNT thread Hijacker Some say that he's driven over more Covenant than he's shot, and that his grenades aren't where you'd expect them to be... All we know is, He's not The Stig... But he is The Stig's Spartan cousin!
The Focus ST which Ford says will be here before 2011 is AWD. I'll dig a nice hole and buy one brand new for $30k. Who needs an Evo when you can have a Cosworth tuned Focus.
