How much real truth is there to this? I'd love to see it also, but I mean it has been so long and to introduce it now? Sounds weird but a Good kind of weird!

According to data from The Detroit News, the average Ford Focus ST buyer has an annual salary of $127,000, which is nearly double that of the average Focus buyer. Moreover, that figures is $20,000 higher than the average Ford buyer on the whole.
Well it's not that long really since the ST turbo has only been here a year.
The biggest stumbling block I see is that there is currently no RS globally, if there's no RS in Europe then there's no chance we're getting one here.
If they do produce one it'll have four doors unlike the previous versions.

This is good news for reasons to bring the RS over.

RS doesn't always launch one RS after the other. They'll discontinue the car while they work on the other and their may be some time between production there. RS is definitely alive and well as in the email Jamal Hameedi sent Travis here talking about how RS worked on the GT500 to learn and give input on the RWD platform, and SVT was doing the same for their FWD platform. That FWD car was probably the Focus RS since this was lap testing at the Nurburgring which they probably had the RS out there on hand as well which they often do.
If.......if it is awd I will be in line to get one. If not next ride will be new 5.0 or BMW M3.
It'll be FWD from the factory.
You don't know this. Their isn't even any spy pictures of the RS in camo. The RS is not coming for the 2015MY, maybe 2016MY.....maybe.
And Ford has never built an AWD Focus, so what makes you think the next RS will be AWD?
Absence of proof isn't a proof of absence.

Not that this means anything, but my brother has been in Ford finance for over 10 years, every time he has heard of something.... Electric/Hybrid, AWD Fusion, etc... It has happened within a couple of years. Saw him over Christmas and said, "Man bro, if Ford would make an AWD Turbo Focus, they would sell the crap out of them." His response, "they are going to build it soon." Hmmmm. I sure hope so.
