Thought this would be an interesting topic for Car Talk.
Seems like these two incredible pocket rockets are coming to the States soon. Finally, right?
The powertrains should give us similar numbers. The pricing for both should be around the same between $30k and $35K.
Which one would you buy and why, if they do come at a similar pricing for similarly loaded models?
I think I would go with Focus RS due to AWD platform! And Love the fact that 70% of power can be sent to the rear end and 100% can go one wheel. That sounds so awesome. :D
