Top_Ghia I'll be keeping this car for a while. I want to enjoy it and I always have fun driving a manual car. I love hearing the pop tune and it isn't the same in an auto.
Wow, so it's not a limited edition like I was told? Interesting. I wonder if Ford will bring out a new version RS? Now I'd definitely wait for that! lol  |
The ST3 isn't an older model, it's the same as the current ST we get here.
FoA have just offered a higher spec to Aussies.
They havnt taken any spec off the current car, the current car we get in OZ is just a lower spec.
Focus ST has always been.
ST1
ST2
ST3
Aus delivered cars have always been a mix of ST2/3
This is just a higher spec car being offered.
If it were me.
I'd buy a manual ST, not the new one.
As for RS.
I think that's still born.
