For those interested, RS500 goes around Nurburgring in 8:26, which is pretty fast, but still 19 seconds slower than its main rival and the fastest FWD hatchback in the world, Renault Megane RS Trophy that goes around in 8:07.
What's with the "FORDripspeopleoff" silly comments?
1. The Focus 500 is European-only, so why the "I Sue Anything" American attorney?
2. That matte finish, as all clear matte vinyl car finishes, cannot ever see an automatic car wash machine. Nor they accept car polish or abrasive wax. Just water and car good shampoo.
3. If you hate the matte finish so much, just peel it off with a steam gun and pull by hand! There's a shiny ordinary paint job underneath.
@driftking11013 He can be a beast but he's not a magician, he cant take RS500 around the track as fast as FordEurope's test drivers, and definitely cant shave 1 minute off his time to match the 430 Scuderia. :P
Why it cannot be bought legally to the USA? I know like in Finland, there are many laws that makes it impossible to drive powerful cars in streets that are allowed to drive in USA or Sweden (for example). But it's allowed to buy them anyway. And alot of cars can be bought in USA and drive them in Finland. Why it's not allowed to buy car and drive them to USA?
Tanner is an accomplished Formula D driver, so yes, he has talent, just not the specific one you care to showcase. The Nürburgring has no dirt or mud that require WRC-level rally skills.
@SteveHandlebar It IS at home, RS500 was developed (just like all fords sold in europe and some sold in US, like Fiesta or Focus) in Koln, Germany, and only for European market.
Amazing car, too bad they have made any rear wheeled STs or RSs. I'm hoping they are setting it up for exactly this. In that in a few years they release RWD. Would be immense.
haha a ferrari gets beat in a drag race by a Cadillac station wagon now a ferrari gets passed by a Ford Focus.HAHA ferrari's are overrated and over priced
