DTP Body Door Hang Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Here's a video of the Focus spotted in Dearborn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB1KAAssk3o They were supposed to bring the next Focus over to Dearborn Engine so we could see what the new one is going to look like. I wonder if this was the one? :happy feet: :happy feet: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKNSLS Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 They were supposed to bring the next Focus over to Dearborn Engine so we could see what the new one is going to look like. I wonder if this was the one? :happy feet: :happy feet: What did they do? Drive it to the nearest retirement home? It sounds like to "mature crowd" were laughing at it. Of course, not in the cars potential demographics....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmm55 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I don't think they were laughing at the Focus, seemed to laughing at their video ability and their less than graceful ingress/egress. Looks like the current Euro Focus (tilting head ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 The video is from an iPhone 3GS which is part of the problem here since if you begin shooting in portrait and then rotate to Landscape, it continues shooting in portrait. The people laughing are probably laughing at each other This is near the Ford garage btw so the offices nearby have access to lots of cool stuff. I dont' work here, but I know the people who do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Looks good. From the back, looks like a mini-Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanh Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 hate to burst a bubble guys...thats the CURRENT RS, all 305hp and revoknuckle...probably evaluating the powertrain etc here, and someones personal driver...yehah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harley Lover Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) someones personal driver...yehah! The guy placed in charge of 'global performance' including SVT was in charge of the development of the RS, and has one coming to be his personal driver in the U.S. (according to an interview I read). Could that be it? Edited June 25, 2009 by Harley Lover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbmphil Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) That's one of 3 RSs in Dearborn. There's red, white, and blue There's a red ST too. Edited June 25, 2009 by fbmphil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goinbroke2 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Oh dear, I think I see a chink in the armour...The idea of bringing great euro cars to NA is awesome, the problem as we see here is..NA people are fat and out of shape. Yes they were old but they all seemed to struggle to get in and out of what would appear to be an awesome set of buckets. "Not the demographic" could be the saver I hope. The car looks awesome and "out civic's" the civic's. The former rice lovers will love this thing I think. If your young and fit and can slide in and out you'll love it, if you pick up your parents, I think they'll not like it. My personal opinion? I LOVE IT! (especially if it is 305hp) Great looking and must go like stink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKII Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) That's one of 3 RSs in Dearborn. There's red, white, and blue There's a red ST too. I doubt there is a Red RS, as they are only offered in Blue, Green and White. Unless of course you can supply a picture of this Red RS. Its obvious 55 year old slightly over weight ladies are not quite the type that would appreciate Recaro seats.
