My local dealer has a Focus RS in front of it. I had to stop and gawk at it today. Just to mess with my wife I texted her about it. Now she’s asking me what the balance would be if I traded in my STi on it. Professional pic of FoRS since my potato cam doesn’t do it justice. Nitrous Blue is glorious in person and not even professional photographs do it justice.

I told her not to let me drive the STi to town unless there is an adult with me.

I’d rather see the authentic potato pic!

Nitrous blue is stunning.

I want a Transit in the color, just to make everyone think I deal in Smurfs.

Hope it’s better in person. Even the professional pic looks like the same porta-potty blue from the Mustang.

Fine, here is one poorly cropped potato pic of a dirty RS. It’s glorious and I want one pretty much exactly like this. The window sticker says it’s got the sticky tire package, but the wheels say it doesn’t. It also has the RS2 package that would be sweet for the heated seats and steering wheel, but I wouldn’t actually order myself because I’m cheap. If I were to order one it would be the RS with Nitrous Blue and no other options.

My neighbor has one in Nitrous Blue with white wheels. Personally, I think the Grey looks better but to each their own.

In person it’s stunning. There is a real fine metallic flake that doesn’t show up in pictures at all. Even as dirty as the one on the lot is the paint is amazing.

I’ve seen a few grey ones and it is a good looking color. I’m just more partial to actual colors. Currently I own a grey 2007 STi and to this day my only regret is not getting a blue one.

My friend that I work with has one in black. We relentlessly remind him that he got it in the wrong color. Then a few weeks after he got his, someone else at work showed up with one in Nitrous Blue. I informed him of the new addition by telling him that there was a correctly colored RS in the lot.

The sparkly flake definitely caught my eye the first time I saw one up close. If you zoom in on the corner of the bumper in this photo you can kinda see it.
