Not big on the profile shot (hatch angle just doesn't seem right), but the face is sexy.

Re: 2009 Focus RS reveiled in Euro Magazine
according to a spokesman from ford, after testing and with a proper differential they did not find a need to use an awd system, a strong lsd would allow for proper handling on a track but would cause the car to dart everywhere on regular roads, so it's seams they will be using an electronic diff, not that much unlike ones found in ferraris

Re: 2009 Focus RS reveiled in Euro Magazine
Too low to be the production car.
BUSTED!!! 4 lug wheels on last photo. Other photos are not real as well.
All speculation. The engine and drive train are correct though. 19" wheels should be standard not 18".Last edited by jinstall; February 18, 2008 at 3:39 AM.
