So hostile in here. I like the car even though I think it needs AWD.

I love it. If they sold that bad boy in the US, it'd replace my GTI tomorrow.

Im sure it's loads of fun to drive, but to me its the vehicular equivalent of a moped.

Its nice i dont understand why Ford doesnt bring some amazing cars to the states. People no longer want large cars with lots of chrome etc. Look at Cadillac selling the CTS in the states and elsewhere its good car.

Just a heads up, the 2012 Focus will be the same here as it will be everywhere else. From what I've heard, the next gen RS is coming to the States.

If it were to come to the states in 2012...AWD should be standard as this car should be targeted towards the Evo and WRX

The FWD is just....Fail, imo
