coleyounger3 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 What price range will it be? I say around 35 or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewtoys Posted February 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 What price range will it be? I say around 35 or so You would think under the price of a Mustang GT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagner Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 You would think under the price of a Mustang GT It will be at least $35 I'm guessing, maybe more. I'm willing to bet it will be along the lines of EVO pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I am definitely interested in getting one, but I want to know how many pennies they will be first....and if it disconnects he power from the rear when I pull the e-brake like in a rally car.

Aaron Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yep, 35 to 40k like the competition (sti, golf r, and outgoing evo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I love it, but my first thought was "a REAL manual? Much wow", followed by "Yayyy cheap Focus STs for everyone!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Would be on the short list for a DD, for sure Jalopnik just followed up with $38k base price article http://jalopnik.com/5110528/new-ford-focus-rs-priced-from-38000 NO>> 12/15/08 3:30pm That was the OLD RS...Converted from UK->USD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2highpsi Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Can't wait till the first batch of these go out of warranty, so I can pick one up on the cheap and mod the hell out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Was thinking probably at least 35k myself. Competes with STi/Evo and doesn't step on the toes too much of it's ST brother. I'm also curious if it'll have the same issues the ST does with track work due to its brake-based torque vectoring system. Should be an absolute f'n blast on the street, though, either way.

Aaron Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Aside from the already mentioned age of the article, there is a lot more to pricing a car, than currency conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fubar231 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Too bad we only get the 4 door version over here... If they had a 2 door one id be all for it. The 4 door one is cool but not as cool as the 2 dr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I like it but not for the mid 30s price tag. I'd be all for a cheap used ST though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 The interior looks neat, and imo blows the evo's and sti's out of the water.. but the exterior comes in third place (er, second place since EVOs will be kaput). Also, for some reason the "RS" doesn't seem like a visually striking letter combination to me - my mentality sees that badge as a middle model for some reason. It's possible I'm just weird.
