For those who love a thrilling driving experience, the Ford Focus RS is an excellent fit for the dynamic landscape of… Phoenix, AZ. The powerful, turbocharged engine allows for impressive acceleration, perfect for navigating the city's bustling roads and highways. Its clever all-wheel-drive system handles well in the dry heat and gives confidence on those occasional rainy days, making it versatile for various driving conditions. Additionally, the hatchback design offers practicality, providing ample cargo space for outdoor adventures in the nearby mountains or a day trip to the desert.
However, its sporty nature might not suit everyone in Phoenix. The Focus RS, with its performance-oriented design, can feel a bit stiff and less comfortable on long commutes or during daily driving in stop-and-go traffic. While it excels on the open road, the ride quality may not be ideal for those prioritizing comfort over performance. Hence, potential buyers should consider their driving habits and the daily demands of living in a city like Phoenix before making a decision.

I fully intended on waiting until I had a good amount of miles on my RS before Writing any reviews but I don't need anymore miles than the 2000 or so that I've already put on it, I have already come to my conclusion.. For lack of a better word This car is Epic!
Of all the Magazine reviews, YouTube videos and Car Forums the hype is, in my opinion, much more conservative then what I have … experienced in this 4 cylinder, Turbo charged, 350 - HP / Ft.lbs of Torque, All Wheel drive Beast!
The power is seemingly limitless, the acceleration will throw your head back and put butterflies in your gut every time, especially with Launch mode activated, it is insane! Handling? Pshh I have taken curves at speeds that I have never attempted before, and I push all my cars to my limit. The Brembo brakes are so tight I thought my neck was going to break when I punched the brake peddle at 85 mph. The steering is super tight, the suspension is rock solid and the Michelin sport cup ll tires are sticky and grip like a cheetah on sandpaper.
Okay, so I'm sure my review sounds incredibly sensationalized, possibly fabricated and maybe even a little ridiculous. Well I assure you, I am just a regular guy and a genuine owner of a 2017 Shadow Black RS2 pkg. Focus RS. I bought into the RS hype but I prepared myself for the possibility of being underwhelmed. Welp I'm not, quite the contrary, I am pleasantly shocked! How do they put so much power and performance in a four cylinder for around 40k? I don't really know but I know that I am glad I got one before they stop making them next year (2018)
As for the durability and reliability, I obviously can not speak for that, I only have about 2000 miles on it so far but I bought the 100000 mile extended warranty. And aside from driving it like I stole it, for which it was made and intended, I will maintain and baby it like it was a 2 million dollar Bugatti. And hopefully it will last a long long time. But I'll definitely make some updates as time and miles pass.
So.. if you're looking at the Hyperhatch class, you're probably checking out the Golf R, Type R, WRX Sti ( And so many more in the European market. Lucky! ) these are all super cool cars and I can't see you going wrong with any of them. But I can only speak for the RS.. If you're considering the Focus RS.. Yeah, It's freaking Awesome! It's a great time for the sports car enthusiast. Enjoy!
