2016 Focus RS - latest on power, price or launch date?

[Ali_T]

Really struggling with the colour choice on this. Nitrous Blue looks like something my mum would have ordered on a Honda Civic in 1992. Stealth Grey looks like they got bored and couldn't be bothered finishing it. The white looks good but every second Fiesta and Focus, these days, is white and I'm not a fan of white cars. That leaves me with black or grey. Woo. The grey does look good in the Euro cars with grey wheels...

What type of figures are people coming out with for these?

I would forget black as well if I was you....does not suit the car at all IMO.

As already stated above....what exactly is it you are asking??
You should put a bit more thought into how you word things on an internet forum site so that it can be easily understood.

The bright blue calipers in the pics really don't suit the black paintwork either and stand out like a sore thumb

Price? 0-60? 0-100? Weight? Top speed? What?

I actually like it on the standard wheels. Yes, it looks like a bog basic Focus, but that has appeal. Really don't like the optional forged wheels on any colour bar white.

Not announced yet

[rehab71]

We are having a new RS at our dealership between the 8th - 13th December, along with a mk 1 & 2 RS, Escort Cosworth, 2015 Mustang, a proper RS 200 and maybe a Ford GT.

If anyone wants details drop me a PM

Do you know what colour it'll be yet? If it's Nitrous then I'll make the long journey.

Already seen and sat in Black and Liquid Blue ones though so would need to see those again.

Black I think, I'll confirm though.

[Legacywr]

Also, does it mean other dealers will be having a car to show, maybe in a different colour?

Is this the LHD pre production car thats doing the rounds at the showrooms ?

[Richyboy]

How do you find out when the LHD RS is going to be at a dealer near you?

I believe so, yes.

[d8mok]

I'd imagine it's the same car as what's at true blue which is going to turn up at various dealers?

Did you have to do that application process where you had a marketing plan etc to get the car?

[Legacywr]

True Blue?

Would like to see a head 2 head of the new RS vs the UK spec Mustang V8.

Not so dissimilar pricing. But which is the quicker and the better drivers car?

It's obvious which looks the better, but in the UK I'm sure more people will oddly salivate over the ugly family hatchback. But so is life.

Would still be genuine good fun to see a show down of the current fast Fords...

Same here. They're the two cars at the top of my list, even though they're very different beasts. Would be interested in the Mustang 2.3 too (same engine as RS, although heavier of course).
