I suspect part of the reason we end up in these situations is because while the Focus RS is an expensive high-end Focus... it is still based on the base model 1.4L cheap car... and it wouldn't be feasable to convert the inexpensive strut platform to double-wishbone for the high-end car.

In the end, the enthusiast always gets screwed by the mainstream.

That said, I'm really excited about the potential of the RevoKnuckle... for what it is.
