2012 Ford Focus ST
 

Nice to see it for sale in the US, still less powerful than the mk2 Focus RS though.


At the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, Ford Motor Company's group vice president for Global Product Development, Derrick Kuzak, promised that an exciting new performance version of the next generation Ford Focus was in development.

At Paris, Ford is delivering on that promise by revealing an early preview model of the exciting next-generation Ford Focus ST. Targeted for launch in all global markets from early 2012, the all-new Ford Focus ST will be Ford's first high-performance model developed under its global Performance Vehicles strategy.

The new range-topping Focus – which features a unique 250PS version of the 2.0-litre Ford EcoBoost engine – will be completely true to Ford's ST heritage, offering driving enthusiasts an intoxicating cocktail of exhilarating performance and handling accompanied by an addictive sound.

Visitors to the Paris display also cannot fail to notice the show car’s highly distinctive sports exterior, which is finished in 'Tangerine Scream', a dramatic new body colour that reflects the new ST’s exciting and energetic character.

Re: 2012 Ford Focus ST
 

Why is it that we don't get cars like the euro counterparts? Emissions or dot laws or something?

Re: 2012 Ford Focus ST

Also: 'Tangerine Scream' = gold...

Re: 2012 Ford Focus ST
 

The RS costs as much as an evo or sti, which would you buy out of the three? And the market isn't big enough over here annnnnnnd the chassis for the RS is not our chassis for the focus. On the new global platform the RS can be worldwide.
