id drive it

 

[wolfe]

I wish they would make it in a 3 door hatch

 

[nytebyte]

Looks good.
That grill is a bit big though and looks like it's about to eat something.
Probably necessary for cooling?

What ever happened to the 300 HP RS?

 

[VenomInside]

Actually looks promising.

 

[The Beast]

It will make a nice Demo. I'll post up the ordering guide when I get it.

 

[219Cobra]

Looks cool,would make a nice daily driver and still get good mpg.

 

[gnxs]

Looks like it should be a nice competitor in that hot-hatch class of cars, if priced correctly.

They mentioned SVT here is called ST in Europe and they are going to call it the same here. To prevent confusion, as well as trade on SVT's image/reputation, would it really be hard to slap some SVT badges on the US bound cars?

yes too much work ST it is.

 

[wolfe]

The ST font looks too much like the STi that Subaru uses, they should rebadge it SVT, and add 100 hp or so

huge front grill to maximize cooling for aftermarket FMIC perhaps???

 

[FESTER665]

Make a damn nice DD..... Hmmmmmmm.....

Heres the other pictures incase anyone cant see them at work or anything like that....

 

[sideways]

i like it

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

pretty sure it's front wheel drive still, which is all you need to know. sucks, it'd be a fun car to have if it was AWD

 

[fastfocus]

that interior looks sick... tho that looks like a euro car.. if the us version stays just like that, looks like i will be owning a focus again

 

[VenomInside]

Watch, it's like 32k.

 

[Blood on Blood]

Looks like a sporty daily driver.

I like, now don't bend me over with the price.

 

[Mystic544]

Rear, side and interior pictures look real nice!
Not so sure about the large mouth bass front end look though...
Agree on watching the price point - if it is good then Zippy (my 03 SVT Focus) has a replacement...um upgrade option
:alcoholic

 

[frdtch05gt]

Very cool, that interior rocks! Looks like I might wait to replace my Escort until the 2012 Focus comes out if the interior stays like that. :biggthump

 

[SICNESS]

I will have one.

 

[hj16]

Needs to happen for less than 25K


If they can do that it will do well.... it should be fun to see what the Turbo 4 banger can put out with normal bolt ons
