When ford starts selling the focus RS what will happen to the new 2015 FoST? Will they stop production right after they update it? Or will they continue the ST branch? And what will we call the focus RS? FoRS?

I imagine the FoST will stick around. The FoRS is a whole new animal - significantly more power and AWD. I think they will adjust prices and market position accordingly so there’s basic Fo, FoST, and FoRS in the same way VW has/had the Golf, GTI, and R32.

Also I think it shall be the FoRS (pronounced Force)

They’ll keep selling it, they’re completely different cars. Like Golf GTI and Golf R.

May the FoRS be with you. Probably be handled the way the WRX and WRX STI are, except the RS is more than a trim level.

I’d think of it closer to lancer/evo as it makes the transition from FWD to AWD

In the same vain, do you think Honda will continue the SI if they bring the Type R to the USA.

Maybe they will downgrade the standard features a bit. More comfortable(less buckety) front seats for one

If you don’t like the Recaros, get an ST1.
