[Hemi300c]

Price probably R400k+-

I wish and hope so but cant see it with the rand the way it is .

 

[Foxhound5366]

Um, the first one was R500 000, so this one definitely will be over that ... my guess is R550 000 at least.

New car prices are ridiculous these days.

"6 Mar, 2015
Here it is, the new Ford Focus RS has arrived and made its public debut at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show. As you might imagine Ford has pulled out all the stops with this third generation Focus RS and the fast Ford is packing in excess of 316bhp that's delivered via an advanced four-wheel drive set-up."

Hello STi look-a-like

 

[syntax]

Ford SA is not even sure if or how many we will get.
I must say it does look good, but I would probably spend the money on something else

 

[FNfal]

Hello STi look-a-like

Huh they dont have a hatch .

 

[rorz0r]

I doubt you'll have much luck getting one under 600k...

Pretty much guaranteed that Ford SA will get; it's a huge halo model; only issue is how much units based on worldwide demand...

Like i said, i contacted ford SA and they wont comment or commit.
We probably will get, but if its the same numbers as the last RS they will be sold before anyone normal gets near it and the price will be inflated.

To behonest, it looks great, but im over the manual transmission thing. And for that price, can get some very decent other options

Yeah no I'm sorry, I feel no shame in saying that I would have no interest in any focus at that price. Likely to be around that mark sadly.

So many other options...

 

[Wasabee!]

Does it come with GTI mags, a bigger wing and in neon pink? If so, I will take one (to buy my monthly dose of tik in the flats).

 

[Type RSA]

I also guess around R550 000. Will never ever be R400 000, the ST is that price already.

Yep R550k + ..

 

[FNfal]

Yep R550k + ..

As mentioned above if the price is more than 550K then you moving towards a A45 territory , good second hand .

 

[Cruelty]

Funky looking car, but R550K ??? I'd rather buy a 135 / 235
