Not sure what to say except IMPORT IT NOW, I WANT ONE! The new Focus ST is BEAUTIFUL and the 2.4 Turbo IL5 is a perfect match!   Quote:
Under the bonnet, the ST features a 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, currently used by Volvo. With 220bhp and over 320Nm of torque, performance is likely to be on par with the first-generation Focus RS. That means the ST will go from 0-60mph in under seven seconds and on to over 140mph, making this the fastest model in the range by far.

That engine has a fair amount of power left in it too, if they are only running it at 220hp

Yeah, boycott ford, because you want them to import a $37,500 Focus that almost no US buyers will purchase?
The simple fact is that US buyers won't pay for the cool small cars like europe will. Then, even if Ford figured out a way to get the price down to $25k for the US market, it would grossly undercut Mustang sales. Talk about robbing Peter to pay Paul.
