Not bad at all! Still wish it was 3-door though. I guess 500bhp goes someway to make up for it though

Bit of a guppy mouth and chavvy arse but I think it looks alright to be honest. It'll certainly go well

Right, so they've used a mk2 rear bumper...

Saw this on Tanner Foust's twitter the other day.

I like the arches, but they should have taken less Mk2 RS bits.

Is this actually going to be for sale to the public? Looks like summing ken block would drive?

Looks a bit Mad Max.

Those archers are a bit weird. Looks like each wheel only has half an arch.

would be miles better if it was a 3 door and had full wide arches, then it would be perfect in my eyes

looks like 1 off concept according to the article, but not surprising as there is no way that would be a production model with 500bhp and fwd heeeeeellllooo torque steer!

Sure the new owner can make a thread voicing their disgust and everyone can chip in about how audacious manufacturers are for not detailing every single production car in their mass production factories.

Focus just needs Monster stickers and somewhere to hang your NHS prescription sunglasses.

Looks like a bit of a bottom feeder from the front.

And if Ford think they're going to have any success putting 504 horsepower on the ground through the front wheels, then they are even sillier than I have given them credit for.

Looks okay in profile though. Even in 4 door guise.

Ford didn't make this. It's not a production car...

Ah ha. Is it not a Ford side project then? Is it a private enterprise jobby?

As it says in the article, its made by http://fifteen52.us/ Ken Block.

The goal of the project, which was built in conjunction with fifteen52 and Ken Block, is to double the output of the Focus ST. That means it's supposed to have 504 horsepower.

Rear left tyre shoulder looks...'well used'. Would look better if they'd done the arches properly.

Ah ha. Didn't read the article. Only scanned/glanced to see if there were any other pics and noticed the horsepower figure and some of the comments at the bottom.

Thought it was a Ford USA project.
