Default AutoExps says Focus RS lives

click : http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/au..._on_track.html

Question, does a hopped up ST with a volkswagen/volvo 4WD, based on an average body structure (rigidy) really have a future?

I personally think not. IF Ford were to really get into this now crowded segment they would have to at least be amoung if not THE class leader. Custom 4WD system, ATD/Anti-yaw control, super-stiff structure, great tactile (NON-electric)
steering etc.

I seriously doubt that even if this hopped up Volvo comes to market it will last much longer than a few months- let alone wether Ford itself has much time left- due to bone-headed lazy development such as with this ghost car.
