In addition to the five-door version of the Fiesta ST Concept, Ford will also show the production version of the Focus ST that made its debut in Frankfurt at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show. The US version of the car is powered by the same 2.0-liter engine producing 250 hp thanks to turbocharging and direct-injection.
The Focus ST will only be offered as a five-door hatchback in the US, and the North American market is unlikely to ever get the wagon version of the car.

The market arrival of the car is yet to be stated, though Ford did say it’s “next year”. The colors available start with the trademark Tangerine Scream and also include Race Red, Performance Blue, Tuxedo Black, Ingot Silver, and Oxford White.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
