Yes, without any doubt, but here in Spain there is a kind of diesel fever.

I cant see the point of this, Ford could have spent this mooney on developing the RS version of Focus instead, and Fords current financial status isnt the best so why on earth did they deside to make this?

Good point, although i tend to have higher expectations for Ford Europe. That's dissappointing to see . . . I'd love it if they came out with a good 300 hp Evo/WRX fighter.

They were going to, but they already canceled that project. |
yea, I suspect that is partly due to the development of the stupid upcoming U.S. Focus.
