I want one in white. With that front bumper, looks very Stormtrooper.

Anyone guessing how much this thing is going to cost? I am guessing starts at around 35000 then tops out at 40000

2016 Focus RS - Driving Technology Features

http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1097088_2016-ford-focus-rs-debuts-at-2015-geneva-motor-show-video

"Beyond the engine (the same turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder found in the Mustang EcoBoost) and all-wheel-drive system (that can send up to 70 percent of torque rearwards), the Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F] is packing its new Focus RS with some interesting technology the automaker says will feature in other cars from its lineup. One of these is a Drive Modes system that allows the driver to select from various driving modes including a "Drift" mode. Others include "Normal", "Sport", and "Track" modes. Each mode can be selected using a switch alongside the gear lever, and has specific settings for the all-wheel-drive system, damper controls, stability and traction control, steering and engine responses, and exhaust sound.

On top of this, there is also a Launch Control system to help get those perfect off-the-line starts. The driver selects Launch Control from the cluster menu, engages first gear, applies full throttle and then releases the clutch. The vehicle then delivers optimum drive- including distributing torque through the all-wheel-drive system wherever it's needed most, maintaining maximum torque using a turbo overboost function, managing the traction control system, and setting the dampers. A shift light in the instrument cluster will ensure perfect shifts, too."
