I <3 it. We'll get the RS. The only reason we didn't get the RS before is because we had a totally different chassis. Cars like that (i.e. WRX, MS3, etc) are proven sellers in the US now, and they need a budget halo performance vehicle. Now that Ken Block is driving Fords, they'll bring it here and promote the shit out of it, bank on that.

I pray that you're right, I'd be the first in line to buy one. I've never been as excited about an american made car as I've been about the RS.

This is very nice. I too love the RS, so I hope that model is available to the US market.

I have thought about getting a Fiesta as well. They are neat looking cars. After buying one in Forza, slammin it w/wheels it looks so dope! <3

The rs200 motor and AWD helped too

Lolz! My wife is sick of hearing me say, "Fear the Fiesta......" as I play...

I'm no longer in the market for this segment of car, but I can say that I like the direction of the new Fords... with the exception of some of their pricing....
