    It owuld be sweet to see this 350HP hot-hatch - especially in AWD. I really wish that the second gen euro Focus was being sold here in N. America. It would also be totally sweet to habe 350 HP in a relatively cheap car. What is the word on the price btw?

    Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo its cancelled. How annoying that Ford NA is bringing down projects like this because they can't sell enough cars. ARRRRRH frustrating overloading brain.

    More hot hatches is always good, but I think this would've been a bit too much over the top if it had 350bhp.

    they might be put off because Volvo also dropped their R model range.
    And the standard 3.0 liter straight 6 with turbo (volvo s80) only produces 285 bhp. So where to get those extra horsepowers

    volvo's tend to be very light on boost. they would have just needed to turn the wick up a bit

    If it does go into production, what will Autocar et al do to plug the gap in their "news" sections?

    Following their reactions to the problems of other cars with an "R" going into production, I suppose they will announce the "-R" version: Jaguar XKR-R, Honda Civic Type R-R...

    Focus Type RS-R?
    Thanks for all the fish
