Thread: Ford Focus RS Coming To Australia In Limited Numbers, Pricing Confirmed!

  1. #21

    Default (Duplicate)Ford Focus RS Coming To Australia In Limited Numbers, Pricing Confirmed

    The Ford Focus RS is on its way to Australia, Ford has announced today.

    Rumours last year suggested that the current-generation Focus RS would be the last. With Ford yet to confirm performance variants for the all-new 2011 model (reports suggest an XR4 Turbo will show at Paris in September), it remains to be seen if an RS variant will figure in the new Focus line-up.
    see full stoy at TMR

    looks like there will be a new FWD king in town soon, 60k is allot for a Hatch but, there is allot of car for your 60k

    If my car "supposedly" looks like Elmo ( Laino), this one looks a bit like Darth Vader..........

    It's a pretty hot looking car but I personally still prefer Elmo

    Would of bought one if they came out 12months ago when I was in the market. I hoped and prayed they would bring them out but all the while they said they wouldn't bring them.

    Glad I bought the MPS instead...plenty enough car for me

    They do look good and also can't wait to see one on the road

    Appears that the $60k price is an illusion. They have capped the release numbers to enable just 1 car per dealer.

    Due to the car being a commodity the dealers are scalping what they can due to buyer interest.

    This is an quote on the TMR site.

    "Haha just a stunt by ford to rip customers off. Called Ford, 1 allocation per dealership, with highest bidder getting the car, i got quoted $84k for a front wheel drive focus RS...no thanks. cant believe there are pl out there prepared to buy this car for that much..."

    This things are awesome as far as FWD goes. Who the hell would pay $84k though. I know there are dealers with atleast 3 allocated to them though.

    Reading the XR5 forum, it appears to be a WA issue, others on the east coast appears to be selling them at the RRP $60k+onroads so around $66K on road.

    Passed one of these this morning on Milton Rd. Didn't look too bad, it actually has an iridescent kind of green.

    Although I absolutely despise hatchbacks, I am quite impressed with the style of this one, it looks quite dashing and it goes like a tornado.

    I've seen a few whenever I travel NoR, all of which have that disgusting fluoroscope shade of green or orange....

    If anyone is looking for a brand new RS Focus in green I know where one is in the yard in darwin.....Hidden Valley Ford..

    The thing that will deter me from buying is the initial price tag on the FORD.. with pricing close 66k there are choices around..
