We have bunch of those bros here too, str8 grand cherokee, 370z roadster, m3, m5, s4, zl1 camaro, etc.

But they ain't a Focus RS with 350HP through the wrong set of wheels that never made it stateside?!



Only other one I am aware of stateside.

That body never made it stateside, the us version of that gen is essentially a facelifted 1st gen

Right.
The US never got the true 2nd gen Focus. We got gen 1.5 ad 1.75, then skipped right to 3 with the current car.

Those .5 and .75 gen cars were terrible. The (then) new .75 was one of the first cars I tested as a writer. My editor wouldn't publish my review without toning it down first. :laugh:

I had a first gen. Aside from always breaking it was a good first car. The 1.75's were AWFUL in just about every way.

The first gen WAS decent for the time. It's amazing how Ford just gave up on improving it as time went on, while overseas, it was constantly being improved.

Well if you are really gonna go that far it was a v6 and they said it was a turbo 4 (which as we know didn't exist in 2014). 99% of the information in that video is entirely bullshit and its hilarious that so many people in the comment section thought it was a serious review.


Guys, I know it was a joke. I made one too. Morans.
