From the Ford website
WRC inspired, high-performance Focus Duratec RS 2.0-litre engine, advanced turbo-charging system with 65 per cent more power than standard 2.0-litre: 215PS @ 5,500rpm/ 310Nm @ 3,500rpm Quaife torque-biasing differential for optimal front-wheel-drive tractability RS performance: 0-60 mph in 6.4 seconds, 0-100 mph in 15.5 seconds, 100-0mph in just 4.1 seconds, top speed of 144 mph At end of day each to their own but why spend that kind of money on a car that only delivers 215bhp and does 0-60 in 6.4 secs?????????? You would get beat by a BMW estate on the school run. Get a serious machine if you want to talk big!!!! |
Sti man compare the above with a UK WRX.
From what I was led to believe by the scoobsters that it was what happened in the twisties that counted. Isn't this the dept the RS has the scoob licked ? gh Katana I expect you will try and pull one of your famous fatility moves if I take you up on your offer although you were totally fit in the movie so maybe worth the risk. |
Sure, a/s/l?
|
LOL
|
Dont know about UK WRX and am not a big fan of it either. Ruddy ugly IMHO.
How anyone can buy a fugly and say it looks good is beyond me. Probably would beat the UK WRX but not an import Type R. I have 4.3 secs 0-60. |
Wrx is crap

Cant believe how old this thread is, but:
Ive just put a deposit down on a Focus RS yesterday(pick it up next week.):luxhello: , has bluefin superchip, K&N filter, Sports cat and Milltek exhaust system and some other mods which has a rolling road printout of 265bhp.:eek: Just come from a 380bhp Evo 7 so the FRS in comparison is pretty slow, but at least servicing and parts are cheap and insurance is cheaper by £1k and the fuel bills wont be as high!:notworthy and there are only 2.5k made in RHD so makes it pretty rare as well. Was really impressed with the Focus RS and to be fair i didnt intend to buy one, but after test driving a RS i had to have one. The question is will it be quicker then a Scooby WRX!:sleep: :sleep: :sleep: I DONT REALLY CARE TO BE HONEST!:p |

And secondly, as soon as you get a little bit of an uneven raod surface ie country roads, your fcuked., Which lets face it, thats where the scoob comes into its own. MY personal oppinion only. John PS Its still a ford, NOT with a COSWORTH badge i must add OH just what did he drive home again in then??????? [Edited by EVOLUTION - 11/8/2002 12:43:58 AM] |
