It's because it's a fast Ford. Think most of us grew up in the Fast Ford generation. We've either owned one, lusted after one, or our dads had one.
That's the thing, Fords RS brand is so strong that whenever it brings out an RS car, most car forums are busy talking about it.
Shame Ford don't know just how strong the RS brand is, otherwise it would have given us what everyone wants. A 4WD Focus RS.
They should have done the Fiesta RS too, but they said there was no market for a Small hatch with 200+bhp. Step forward Clio 197, Mini Cooper works, Coras VXR. Ford would have sold plenty.

I like them a lot but the constant talk of them is putting me off them rapidly.
I do want a mk1 Escort Mexico though.
SOOOOOO cool!

My ST170 came with 2 budget tyres on the front so I couldn't really drive it properly. I've just had a full set of Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics fitted, and it's without a doubt the best handling FWD car I've ever driven.
It's not quick, but you have so much fun driving it that it doesn't need to be.
