Unmistakable sound

Don't be fooled by the looks of this test car. It is not the ordinary Ford Focus ST but the brand new Focus RS. Looking closer at the front end one can see the bigger air intakes and the driver helps drawing the photographers attention by giving him the finger and putting his foot down.

The sound of the 300bhp engine was unmistakable, just like the car's fast acceleration with 4 wheel drive and the rally-like sound of that dump valve while shifting gears. Add some wide fenders, a more aggressive front end styling and you have the Focus RS, a true competitor to the upcoming EVO X.

this is 100% sure not the focus rs! focus rs has a 60mm wider wheel base and has no 4 wheel drive! i've driven the new rs multiple times and i can tell you for sure that it's a fwd car! they are still testing the new rs on lommel proving ground... in belgium.
