Power to weight, its going to be one quick grocery getter. Torque steer looks like it wont be an issue with the torque vectoring technology, there really is alot of tech involved with this car. Tell me how the test drive goes Shado, i'm curious to know before I order one from the military car sales dept. here. Also, rumor has it that an awd version will be available as well.

AWD version, if cheap enough, could be a direct WRX competitor. That would be sweet. And the Focus has rally heritage to draw on.
As for the MS3, I agree, this hatch immediately competes in that segment. My biggest gripe with the MS3 is the looks. It's a great performer. I might have bought it if I didn't have to look at it in my driveway lol. Focus looks better imo.
I'll let you guys know if/when I get a test drive, but if someone else gets to test it first, please post your experience
