It will get us prepared!

Seriously, there is so much info out there about the Mk II now I figured it would be good to start covering it. Not only for us hopeful North Americans but also for those lucky FJ members that happen to live in Europe.

Stupid DIAL UP. I have photos from Saarlouis of the C1 the day before production started. I also got to see the C1 at the Nuerburgring when they were giving test drives to dealers and special guests. I scored a few Ford Focus clothing items as well as a backpack. They had a ton of stuff but I limited my purchases to $120. I have been looking for the website that carries the stuff but cannot find it. I have to wait till my stuff from Germany arrives and I will then have the web address. Oh and the theme for the event was In Focus is the Focus script. They had only the 3dr and 5dr for test drives.

I just read in the latest "Car" magazine that the ST220 Focus is gonna have a 2.5L Turbocharged engine borrowed from a volvo. It is to have 220 BHP.

Also there is speculation from the same source that there will be a 300BHP AWD RS to follow soon after the ST. And that it says for the EVO to watch out.

I just read it in the magazine if yall already knew that oh well.
