Thumbs up 240+ HP Ford Focus ST

I think I have found what my next vehicle will be. I have had great luck with my 2001 Ford Focus ZX3 over the last 10 years and the hot looking new Ford Focus ST with a turbocharged 2.0 inline 4 hatchback will fit in nicely with our current HHR SS. Now I just have to wait for it to come out

247 HP 2012 Ford Focus ST set to go global

Ford will not be the only one. The Focus has a very large following with alot of aftermarket manufacturers already. The fact that we will finally be getting an ST will just add fuel to that fire

I saw that online earlier tonight. Personally, I like the current Focus better, but I'm not a fan of the styling of a lot of European cars. Still looks cool nonetheless.

Would this replace your HHR, or Focus?

It sounds like he's going replace his old Focus and keep the new Focus along with his HHR SS.

I've seen "M" plate cars running around for the last two years. The car is gorgeous in person IMHO. Can't wait to see and drive one.
