Just saw a truck full of green, white and blue ones at the local Autotrans yard. Gotta say the green is the pick of the bunch......I wish I had the cash

Bucknaked · 06-10-2010, 07:26 PM

I want to give it a good home. We could be the best of friends

If only I had the money. I'm not fussy. Green will do me. Might be time to donate parts of my body I don't need to science.

That Ultimate Green RS IS at Mt. Panorama on the outside of the Circuit. I was up there all day on Thursday but didn't get to see it in the flesh as I was pressed for time (but that's another story).

landau460 · 11-05-2011, 06:55 AM

i know where there is one blue for $63000 i sat in the other day just to see how nice it was the seats are heaps nicer why dont the GT's get that sort of thing to sit in or at least the GTPs

photn · 11-05-2011, 06:10 PM

Cause they are AUS built... where as the RS is European built with name brands.

**Polyal** · 11-05-2011, 06:13 PM

Not only that the GT's are built for cruising aswell....the RS IMO is basically track focused for the street.

Both are great cars, but I would take a GT/GTP for long drives.

**DJM83** · 11-05-2011, 06:53 PM

RS is a more Focused (for want of a better word) seats like what exist in the RS are needed believe me, whereas in the GT i doubt the cornering speed in GT would be near an RS. GTP seats are still fantastic though

Bucknaked · 11-05-2011, 07:14 PM

Spied one this morning in green. They certainly have a real presence on the road.

Gomez · 11-05-2011, 07:23 PM

President Ford in Elsternwick still have one.

smee323 · 16-05-2011, 03:09 PM

A few places still have them.
Can't seem to shift them.
$50 grand and I'd think about it to replace the XR5

**Polyal** · 16-05-2011, 03:13 PM

Yes these dealers are just bending themselves over, the next "XR5T/XR4T" or whatever they will call it will surely have more power, getting closer to the RS and make its value even more dubious....

Granted a XR will never be a RS but its bound to be a pretty good package.

There is still a substantial gap between the 2, 305HP vs 247HP so i doubt that will be an issue.
Im not justifying the RS price at all but the power outputs are a fair bit different.

**Polyal** · 16-05-2011, 10:21 PM

Has the next Focus ST been quoted on power yet? Is that what you are quoting?

photn · 17-05-2011, 06:34 AM

the next focus ST/XR4 will have the 250HP 2.0 eco boost engine. The exact HP/PS has not yet been quoted, but all sources say its about 250hp.
