This is nice. Always love the Focus and the euro Fiesta back in the days when I had my ZX3. It is good to know Ford is finally releasing the good stuff in the US!!

A baby Focus ST! I bet it will be fun to drive. I hope it sells well here.

It was initially supposed to be 180 hp. I'm betting it was pushed because of the Veloster Turbo.

I think they fear that no one would buy it, but if you're looking for ultimate economy there isn't much better. 94 hp and 151 lb/ft aren't impressive numbers but that's basically the same as a Prius, is cheaper, and potentially greener depending on your perspective.

Ugly car

, Great performance.

Anyone know which factory will make US fiesta ST? Not all fiestas are created equally. I'd really would want to know factory producing the car and quality of cars produced from factory recently.

...exciting news! Solid twist beam axle suspension is stiffer in the new 2014 ST.

I guess good news is that it has big heavy turn of century iron block engine that will allow tuners to crank the boost and make lots of unusable power! He he he.
