I loved the Focus RS I test drove. Absolutely the best new car I have test driven in a very long time. In fact, it is the only new car I would consider buying today.
However, I would order one without Recaro seats. They feel surprisingly aftermarket. One must be very thin to be comfortable in them. Basic seat adjustments are extremely difficult to make.
Getting rid of the Recaros will also eliminate the unusable Ford Touch secondary controls, which is definitely the way to go.
The basic car is absolutely incredible. Tons of traction, superb engine, great gearbox and clutch, good steering (not SAAB good.) Equipped with great summer tires, it really dances around tight corners. Ride quality is outstanding.
