So who else on SVTP plans on ordering the Focus RS? I plan on ordering my RS in white, loaded, which included the RS specific winter wheels and tires.

^^ assuming that is not the case, we're looking at one. We currently have her 2014 v6 and i have a mazdaspeed3. Ultimately, she wants the focus RS, and i want another 5.0 lol ... we may be a 2 hot hatchback household for a while, but i think eventually the plan is to have the Focus RS and another 5.0. We'll see, apparently kids are really expensive ...

I am first in line at my small dealer. However with the enjoyment of my Fiesta ST I think I will wait for the smaller lighter Fiesta RS!
If I was to order I would order the White with RS wheels and Sport Cup 2 as the only option!

Just priced it out and came to $47k. Nope. Those damn forged wheels and cup sport 2's.

Would like to trade the SHO on one, but not likely to do it first year.

I plan on getting one sometime around summer time of 2017.

Nitrous blue, RS2 package, upgraded wheels w/ track tires, moonroof. Might as well get a fully loaded car, if you're going to do it.

I dont remember seeing but has ford stated what the production numbers are going to be for this car?

2000 for 2016MY. Keep in mind that 2016MY will be a short run because it will be in dealers late in the model year. 2017 is 4500+

Im debating no longer modding my 2014 GT and just driving it until I see how the RS performs along with their reliability. Hopefully dealer mark up goes down after these are out for a year or more. It would be nice to have a car I can drive year round and more comfortably put my 100 LB dog in.

You live in Texas. If I can drive my GT in the snow, you can drive your GT year round :)

Im kicking around the idea. To trade in my FJ or not to trade in my FJ? The FJ is a tank in the winters up here in NY.

Same. Next year I will be in a better position to buy. My first child is due mid May and with babies being so expensive its better for me to wait. Besides, I might snag a used 16 instead of getting a new 17.

I currently DD a Fiesta ST and seeing as how this car is an absolute blast I'm eager to see how the Fiesta RS turns out. I might opt for that instead.
