Ford Reporter

Ford gave us some pictures featuring the 2009 Ford Focus RS in blue paints. The RS is practically an upgrade on the ST version with an aggressive body kit and more power  – a modified Duratec 2.5-liter 5-cylinder which develops 300PS and over 410Nm of torque and is capable to accelerate from 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 164 mph. Modifications to the standard motor include unique camshafts, a revised cylinder head and intake manifold.

On his debut in London they said that this new RS model will have a 2.5 Liter, 5 Cylinders turbocharged engine capable of sending this little car from 0 to 100 Km/h in just 6 sec with a Top speed of 260 Km/h. Later on they said that the new RS will accelerate from 0 to 100 Km/H in 5.9 sec and a top speed of 263 KM/h.

Well, it`s not a big difference but the price is. The new RS will cost 39.000 Euros while his smaller brother the ST with an engine delivering  225 Horsepower will start from 29.980 Euros.

The ne w RS will be available in 3 colors: Performance Green”, “Indianapolis Blue” si “Frost White”, with green or blue interior. I can hardly wait new photos with a Indianapolis Blue RS.
