mitchell duchesne I get your sentiment but of it didn’t sell it make sense. Face it the world is going to blobby SUVs. Cars like this will be collector cars in 10 plus years. I will say I put my money where my mouth is and bought a new Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio because I kinda feel like cars like these types are gonna go extinct so might as well buy and drive now.

@@2steaksandwiches665 sales are one thing, but if the company says they dont sell then dont invest the money in improving the cars. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. GM made and sold more SUV's in the 90's and 2000's than another company and almost went bankrupt when gas prices went up by a dollar a gallon in the USA. I honestly think we are heading there again. I'm like you buy sports cars, they're rare and will hold value. Also buying electric. I'm done.

It might just be because I'm really drunk, but you made me legitimately cry just then. Cry at the beauty and majesty of being alive and the value connecting to other people. Thank you.

I know you're a hilarious satire channel RCR - but that ending was really great. I bought a Focus ST 2 years ago for the same reason this guy did. I wanted my family and friends to enjoy it if they ever came and visited me. I wanted a car that put a smile on my face - but other people enjoyed it too. I even wanted to teach my future SO how to drive it. It fit all those marks pretty perfectly. I loved driving it - and even all the non-car people really liked it. You don't even have to mod it - it's just good the way it is. I decided to sell the car this past April. I sold it and decided to *GULP* lease a 2016 Civic, as it was a "smart and sensible" decision. However, I think the ST and the RS are truly the perfect family cars for people who would like to have fun and also not have to compromise fun for practicality. With my Civic, I just have a "car". With the Focus, it was a fun driving experience and a unique vehicle that other people also enjoyed as much as I did. I still miss it.

Is it weird, that I want a sedan version of the Focus RS? that would be cool, and will look more proper and simple than the hatchback

I know it's not the same thing but check out SS Tuning, they're a Ukrainian company that took a Focus sedan and made an "ST" version out of it. Oh and they put an actual STI wing on it.

It's a really cool car but there's only two glaring problems I see with it: (1.) No LSD or Torsen diffs, which is a requirement to be a really good AWD car like this one is marketed as. Brakes are a poor man's substitute. (2.) I still wouldn't feel right spending $40k on a focus unless I had a family like the owner.

The 'breaking' torque vector system in the ST is the major reason i stayed away from it. I thought the RS didnt use that and instead actually had a true system using power instead of brakes. *shrug*

Not AWD but FWD. In the fiesta st it can cause the car to slow down more when turning if more aggressive brake pads are put on. It is like traction control that won't go away.

This car just proves the theorem that the further you get from Detroit "engineers", the better the car. Ford is a 1950s rocket program, our Germans are better than your Germans.
