2016 Focus RS : Inc Pics

apparently we may see a fiesta RS again, personally I'd like one but an ST-2 fiesta is around 17k so god knows what an rs fiesta would cost...

Maybe it won't come in a 3 door. Can't see any new 3 door ST's when I quickly looked?

only came as a 5door and estate, the focus is now a global car hence the 5-door.

There are plans for an all new megane? or are we talking about #under8?

About the under8 one - current megane is just that good you see so just a couple of changes to be made (exhaust and suspension judging by teasers)

Obviously not biased one bit

I sit here praying my eyesights bad...surely its not a 5 door.
No "hot" hatch is a 5 door. Although the Focus RS is slightly more than hot...this looks crap.
Another cruddy 5 door wet-hatch, not what the market wants or needs, wrong move Ford, straight from the Renault guide of how not to make a modern hot hatch.

Owwww.... and my Fiesta ST lease runs out then... could be interesting.


I fail to see the problem with 5 doors. The rwd people say a car has to be rwd and fwd is crap. The fwd people complain that 5 doors are too much. The Turbo people say that NA is lifeless. The NA people say that turbo is wrong. The sideways people say that driving normally is for wabs... Everyone has there own opinion for some reason ford seems to think that 5 door is legit.. maybe its keeping costs down who knows that said I dont know why they moved from a 3 door Focus RS to a 5 door..

I think the RS looks ace and if I can save enough up in two years (doubtful) I'll maybe try and get one if I decide to stay with the blue oval.

I still like the mk1 the most, still looks aggresive but not overly shouty at all. Just needs some changes (understatement!) to the interior and for me it would be so much better with an ITB'd Duratec lump too, would make it the ultimate fwd hatch.

I like that, ALOT. Wonder how much I could get one for with my Grandads discount.. Hmm.
