People just seem to think that they can get a good used cheap car for under $5,000. Which you honestly cant you might get lucky once but its iffy. I love small performance cars and if i had to money i would buy it. but im only 21 an jobs are few an far between.

"It's just a Focus" *shudder*

It's true, though, the common perception I mean.

I was truly looking forward to the RS being available here; had a longstanding arrangement at my dealer that were they to become available (when at the time I didn't realize I had access to the dealer bulletins) that he'd reserve me one as soon as the order banks opened.

Many times we had the discussion of "Why would you pay Mustang money for "just a Focus". And this is the people selling them ...

To answer that comment I can think of a few good reasons why you would choose a Focus RS over a Mustang:

1) Better Fuel Economy
2) Easier to get into and out of for rear seat passengers

are the two big ones I could think of and if they were to produce an RS here that was AWD that would be the tipping point for a lot of people (myself included if the RS had an autobox option)

Not saying that the Mustang is a bad car, hell, I'd buy one right now if I could afford to run two cars at once. but the Focus is a much tidier package...

Plus your not making up for something buying a focus.
