St vs WRX makes more sense...but even then...

WRX is what....25k brand new?

The focus ST is 17K pounds....thats what? 40K Canadian.

I'm sorry, but nobody is going to pay that when they can get the MS3 for 10k cheaper. ;)

I'm all about a stupid fast focus, but the way ford priced the SVTf, I'm sure they'd be asking wayyyyyyyyyyyy to much for an ST version here.

Agreed ,all wheel drive. The STi is a sedan, the Focus St is a hatch. Extra Bonus.

You can go and buy a Focus ST right now...they are at Volvo Dealers, and go by the name "C30 T5"... :lol:

I already looked into it, and if say, Hamilton Volvo were to give me $25K for my Mustang, the monthly payments on the C30 would be LESS than the Stang...

Or should be attacked by an axe.

I've read that the handling of the Volvo is not as good as the ST....... I want my cake and eat it too.
