What do you think of Ford hot hatches?

Shit

Bought an ST estate/wagon 2 weeks ago. Will get it probably mid January-ish. Test drove one before and fell in love completely.

Comfy, quick, practical, can't think of a car that gives you more bang for the buck.

>>16182660
this and the RS is too fucking expensive for what it is

>>16182800
>costs 45k
>gives you the performance of a 45k+ car
>but with the practicality of a Focus

I don't see what the issue is here

>>16182811
>not awd

>>16184833
oh look it's this faggot again

>>16182811
With the interior of the base focus

>>16184833
The Focus RS IS AWD you flaming retard

>>16182811
>45k
>can be bought for under 40k

I don't really think about them.

I sat in a fiesta ST at a car show. I faux-shifted from 1st to 2nd and hit my funny bone on the center arm rest. Fuck that shit.

>>16184913
lol I had that issue, fixed by installing a short shifter.

Not much other than they are huge pieces of shit, the Fiesta ST is the best out of all 3 and it's the slowest.
The interior is just awful, it's sad when the older GTI's have better interior than a car from the present.
The FoST is slower than the wrx with a way worse clutch, no amount of fun the ST gives in handling will forgive it's awful clutch.
The FoRS is an awful understeering combined with an overheating diff and hot powersteering pile of shit, the only good thing about this car is the engine. It's AWD bias is awful, it handles like a FWD shitbox.
The FiST is probably the only redeemable car they make out of the 3, its slightly overpriced but there is a lot more fun to be had that makes the clutch forgettable.

Not him, but the Focus RS is Still too expensive for what it is.
Exhibit A. Basically the same thing for 5k less on sticker price alone.

The Golf R is boring though.

It's a fast hatch, but not a hot hatch. It has no personality.

>"Haha, dude, I ain't gonna pay over 40 for a focus!"

>>16182649
better in the 90's
>dat rsturbo feista
>dat rsturbo escort

the new ones fall apart and have shite quality control, not saying the old ones didn't but fuck it, it was the 90's

>>16182649
they have really bad stereo systems
and uncomfortable seats

>>16185984
I wouldn't pay over 25 for a focus RS.

>>16186006
every faggot says this, and yet, we still sell every one we get before it even makes it off the delivery truck. with a $5k markup, to boot.

you're forcing me to draw the conclusion that everyone who says that is a broke fucking loser that can't afford a new car anyway.

>>16186058
25k was a bit of an exaggeration. more like 28k.

Wish ferd would allow Lincoln to have them

Of course they would never allow Lincoln to experiment

>>16182649
Hate their design, ex- and interior. Also I don't understand why you would spend E class money for a hothatch. I know different purpose etc but i still don't see how they're worth it. The Focus RS costs three times as much as the standard Focus.

>>16186058

Lets be honest - how many of the ones you sell are sold for cash? I'm pretty sure that 99% of these are sold to people with less than 25k on their account.
They are credit carts just like the toyobarus.

Nice projecting
Nice memes

>>16182649
FiST is cool, FoST is the finest mediocitry money can buy, and the FoRS is pretty cool but it's a Focus for 40K.

What they need is a FWD ~31K Fiesta RS with the Focus ST engine.

E class starts at 44k here and the RS at 40k.

It's "AWD" for a couple of pulls, then the rear drive clutches heat up and it's a FWD cuckmobile again.

>ford will never make a mustang hatch

>>16189120

>>16189137
