It looks like the blue bastard lovechild of an A45 AMG and the Evo. Overpriced in comparison to the WRX STi which it was supposed to be a competitor to, as the FoST is to the WRX. Undoubtedly fun to fling around the back streets but it wouldn't be anything revolutionary; Ecoboost is just a fancy Ford term for factory turbo and AWD and turbo have been paired since the late 80s a la Group B Quattro S1.

For the same money I could get a used Evo and dump the difference in sick mods, or a STi, or the infinitely superior Cossie which didn't need Ken Block shilling it to sell.

but would you drive this car?

I actually test drove one last night, I wasn't that impressed and I daily a 2016 Sonic LS. Sure, it was fun to floor it on a back road straightaway, but the interior is nothing to write home about.

The extra gauge cluster on the dash is useless since it's electronically controlled. The one I drove didn't have a touchscreen (not a deal breaker for me). The seats are definitely comfortable.

I don't see a reason to pay $5000 more for this over a Fiesta ST. Sure you get more space, but if you're buying a family car why are you looking at the ST anyway?

First and second gear yank you around pretty well, and since I don't like riding the clutch I feel like I have to treat the pedal like it's made of glass.

I know I'm just a poor, assmad GM fangirl, but the test drive actually made me appreciate how much I got with the Sonic more. For $10,000 more I can't see enough of a difference.

Focus RS, not ST. The RS starts at $35,900. And this time it comes AWD unlike the previous Focus RS.

And they retuned the ecoboost to produce more power too.
>>
>>15368870
So why are the 5 doors popular and not the 3 doors?
Is it because the 5 doors are more practical or is there something else that makes it good
>>
>>15369748
I'm guessing it's catering to the budget market. Insurance is lower if you have more doors, I think.
>>
>>15369748
the current focus is only available with 5 door or wagon, they never made a 3 door, wasn't profitable
