Nope, just oil cooled on my motor.

And you would think that but I had a friend that had a turbo Audi, she is reasonably knowledgeable about cars and after I told her, she said, "Ahhhhh so that's why my car smells like burnt oil when I turn it off." (She drives like a bat out of hell all the time).

So the traditional RS blue is going to be one. What are the others (if you can disclose)?
[Reply]

Nitrous blue, shadow black, stealth grey, and frozen white.

Nitrous blue will be Focus RS only

if youve got a EGT gauge next time you flog the hell out of it pay attention to how long it takes to go from 1200+ to normal 700-800 while still driving, then see if it dips more after idling for 30 seconds.
[Reply]

:-) I'll probably be going with the blue.
[Reply]

Mine's still in the shop but I don't have an EGT gauge. As soon as the RS was announced, I decided I wasn't going to mod the Speed3.

Just talked to the big boss.. still no real info on exact timing when we can order and how the allocation is going to work.
[Reply]

Cool. Just keep me posted.
[Reply]

news coming down today that only 2000 will be allocated.. I will continue to look in it but there are likely 10x as many buyers as there will be cars :-)
[Reply]

Why run something so limited on that? We aren't talking a collector's car here.
[Reply]

2k for the entire country?

I might have to pull what the Hellcat/shaker pack owners did and put in orders at multiple dealerships to get one.
[Reply]

For hot hatch fans, the first year that the RS comes to the states will be somewhat of a collector car.
[Reply]

I can imagine it'd be a cult car, much like the Acura RS-X or the last generation Celica.
[Reply]

Agree on your first statement and question the second.
[Reply]

A lot of the import tuners love those cars. Not quiet as fanatic as the late 80's, early 90's CRX crowd, but they're still highly sought after.

The RS-X is definitely a cult favorite though, the Celica to a lesser degree.
