Picture taken with a potato through a dirty windshield, facing (almost) into the setting sun.

That’s a Quebec F plate, used for cars registered to a business and not a person, which means somebody bought themself the coolest company car ever.

Five minutes after I took this picture, I spotted a beautiful white Focus ST. My first thought?

Is Ford limiting the numbers on those? If they were smart they would just sell the shit out of them. Give it to the fucking USA already, we just get STIs and MRs for rally cars and we know who drives those for the most part.

I think there’s a limited # being produced.

Aren’t these already available in the USA?

Yes yes they are, a quick search shows quite a few on lots.

Ford is building to customer demand. No production limit.

I hope so, I am so tired of US companies that sell awesome cars overseas and then the states get squat. I know Ford has a certain market in the UK and that has been a smaller sporty car than the big V8 Mustang but not everyone wants a Mustang! This shit goes back to the 60's with the Escort while the USA got a boat of a Mustang. I may get a used one of these in a few years.

Meanwhile the GT350 is limited production and US only, and it would probably be more in demand than the RS if it were sold in Europe. The grass is always greener or something like that.

They must be happy selling a bagillion F150s

I think it's a limited initial run. They'll probably increase the number in subsequent years.

I don’t think Ford is limiting the numbers. The dealerships sure as hell are though. All so they can mark them up above retail.
