I would still get the Focus RS over the Mustang:

I love my ST for being practical and fun. Give me all wheel drive and "Drift" mode and I'll be happier than a pig in shit.

The Focus RS is sweet, but $55-60k is pretty steep.

This.

The '18 brings some further refinements, but the new front end is too busy. The triangles at each end of the bumper are  [puke]

10th is 0.636, 9th is 0.689, and 8th is 0.854.
Given the span, 7th is ~1.04.
So appears only 3 overdrives.
:-\

Basically a CVT.  ;D

I like it!

Mustangs have grown on me the last couple years.  I'm liking the look.

I'm hoping that 10-speed auto will make it into their other vehicles like the Explorer.

C'mon over when the weather clears, you can go beat up Judy's a bit. I suppose we'll ask permission first....ok nah, we'll just do it

I imagine they're going to put it into many vehicles. It was co-designed with Chevy and is used in both of their 1/2 trucks...

Nice. I was thinking we should get together and cause some trouble this year (Moto, car, whatever). There's that concrete city near you after all...

I've noticed I'm seeing design notes that seem similar to the DB as far as door and window shape go.

From what I've read the stock RS is a hoot. Modified, even more so.  [evil]
