Holy Fawk, after listening to you guys crying for the past 6 years about "bububu we don't get the good stuff that Europe gets" I kept saying "be careful what you wish for because you're going to have to PAY for it".
Now a base Focus sedan starts at $15,999 and a base hatch starts at $19,899 BEFORE ANY INCENTIVES so stop comparing a fairly loaded Focus to a WRX that STARTS at $32G and runs to $44G.
No wonder Ford doesn't want to bring the ST here, bunch of whiny tightwads. lol

well said my good sir.
you pay a premium for the european quality that is in the new focus. it is leaps and bounds ahead of the last gen that we all love. i personally dont care what the price tag is, all i know is i will own an ST in the near future as a daily driver once my car is paid off. whether i get a model that is 1 or 2 years old it doesnt matter but im willing to pay for what we all have been waiting for ill say that much.
