Ford Focus RS Concept

Needs to be bright orange.

I dont like the vents or the yellow dials. Other than that I like it a lot.

FrannoBaz · 13 Mar 2008 at 23:03

That is properly ******* handsome.

Akira · 13 Mar 2008 at 23:05

The lights and the wheels are nice.

LoadsaMoney · 13 Mar 2008 at 23:07

Not keen on the Orange dials, but if that was a bird, id ******* hammer it all over.

the dials would more than likely be customisable anyway with different colours I'd have thought tbh?

i don't like ford performance cars any more.

bar the fiestas which are true 'hot hatches' the focus's just don't get my juices going.

they need to make a 300bhp 4x4 model.

The front looks like it torque-steered straight through the reduced bins in my local halfords. Eww.

Nice side profile and interior shots though.

Very nice, loved the Focus ST this takes it to another level, but the old Focus RS just looks meaner and faster.

danza · 14 Mar 2008 at 01:23

Yeah, have to agree. There's defo something about the first Focus RS that sets it apart from all the other hot hatches of it's generation IMO. It looks so 'right'.

Conscript · 14 Mar 2008 at 01:29

It looks just like an ST :confused:

MeAnBoY · 14 Mar 2008 at 02:34

I prefer the new ST looks, bit sleeker.

Gaygle · 14 Mar 2008 at 02:35

The RS looks very nice, but they say its going to be around the price of an Impreza or what the Evo 8/9 were.

I know i'd choose an Evo or Impreza over the Focus RS anyday.

olv · 14 Mar 2008 at 02:45

does anyone know for certain whether or not it is four wheel drive?

Bennah · 14 Mar 2008 at 07:19

I personally love it, think it looks great.

looks mean, some of the styling is a bit chavy like the vauxhall vxr cars

Yeah it's certainly not my cup of tea, looks like it's ram raided it's local Halfords Accessories section :eek:

Can you explain to me which bits lead you to this conclusion? Its got no stick on tat just an aggressive front bumper :confused:

HEADRAT · 14 Mar 2008 at 08:46

Don't like the louvered bonnet
Don't like the white stipes down the side
Don't like the front air diffuser
Don't like the rear air diffuser (are we supposed to believe that provides ground effect aerodynamics)
Don't like the front lamps
Don't like the white wheels
Don't like the boot spoiler
Interior makes me want to wretch

Maybe the Halfords comment was slight out of place, I was just using it as a vehicle for my general disatisfaction with the styling.

If I was 18 I'm sure it would be my dream car, I would imagine it won't be aimed at the under 20's market though!
