It aint new or nothing but i think it looks absolutely brilliant, its the electric orange used on the mk2 Focus ST but on a mk1 Focus RS, the guy bought the car as a Cat D write off, and built it upto RS spec, its 95% complete according to him but from the looks of it theres a hell of a lot left to do, but i think the paint job, especially the orange detail on the wheels looks amazing.

Wow, that's extremely nice, loving the orange paint and the black rims complete the look, very good for the man for building it back up to RS spec, but most have cost a lot, but worth it, it's a stunner.

I've seen a Focus SVT here at my college but it's in a darker orange and has crap brownish-gray or whatever color wheels.
But this car looks more like what that SVT I see sometimes should be like.

From what i know the focus RS aint available in america? ive seen the RS8 concept, ZX3 and ZX5, but not an RS. theres something like 4700 of them and there all blue, so an orange one is something really out of the ordinary. the SVT is the equivalent to an ST170 over here. and an orange st isnt really something out of the ordinary, whereas an orange RS is.

Looks wicked but i would have prefered some black colour incorporated into the orange bodywork paint to.
The orange Focus ST still manages to draw my attention everytime one goes past.

Why isn't the RS sold in the US? Does it have to do with emissions or something? I'd love to see it here.

dont think any of the RS models have ever been sold in the US, Sierra RS Cosworth, Escort RS Cosworth, and the Focus RS, i've only ever seen uk versions

hmm, the colour does look nice, but i prefer that racing blue, although i can tell you that the ride is so freking hard that you wont want to drive it..
well it looks good, lower the car, add some more trims, get some windows on it, add some more power, great!...looks good now too though
Sidhu88
Nov 23, 2006, 3:39 PM
the car should of been 4WD imo, powers ok for that car i reckon, but i'd probably crave a bit more power if i had that car, probably tune it into the 3-400hp region with 4wd, tinted windows to match the black rims, paint the brake calipers black with orange brembo writing. keep it all black and orange really.

It looks hot. Well, at least it would with windows. I've always thought the old Focus looked better than the new one, so this is like the best Focus ever thanks to that color!

Wow, not bad, and I really mean not bad as in good. The colour is brillant, not too sure with the black alloys though, probably looks better in matt silver with orange tires wall/trim. I have always prefer the MK1 RS than the second one, I personally think the second one looks abit weird from certain angle. The wheels on the MK2 RS looks cool though, just like those from Lamborghini.
If the car is lowered, add a bigger white alloys and with orange neon glow inside the alloy, it will look really cool.
:D :D J.J. :D :D

The only thing I don't like are the mirrors, but the car looks great, probably goes great aswell. got alot of good parts put into it. And guess what, its up on ebay again.

Well that's a given, because it's finished.
Mehh, the paint job is original but it's not my cup of tea. Stick with performance blue.

Theres one thing i dont like about the RS, the fact its not 4WD. If only it was tuned by cosworth aswell, the engines good enough and it would be great, theres a few tuned up foci's with cossie engines and a 4wd system, also a fiesta. Hopefully the new RS will be a better successor to the escort cossie. Just think the new focus is a bit big in size compared to the old focus. Even if it isnt much bigger it does look alot bigger in comparison.

orange and black are nice colors. Overall I like the car.

No, firstly the american Focus has huge abnormal bumpers, and secondly the RS isn't available in america.
For example
http://www.nextcar.com.au/i.ford.focus.st170.04jan.jpg
http://www.nextcar.com.au/i.ford.focus.st170.rear.jpg
Compare this to the american version

UK version looks much better.
The mk2 focus in the US looks wrong aswell, its basically got the MK2 UK headlights on a MK1 focus.

Man, that's a real nice looking car. Too bad the only angle I'd be seeing it is in my rearview....
I'd get a nice view of it's front, tho....
