i've decided i'm going to buy myself a new motor and i'm tempted with the Ford Focus ST (in organge), anyone know much about these motors?  I can get an ST 2 for 16k and i'm very tempted because it has a top speed of 150!

I dont know where you live, but if you live in Oz

Get either a Toyata Landcruiser or a Holden Minaro. Both nice, both different, both pricey :D

At a 30% discount the ST would be a good buy..... must say I prefer the Electric Blue one though....!!!

Get one in black.

Why anyone would want an orange car is beyond me.

the focus st's are quality cars and very quick. but don't get the orange it's hideous!!!  watch out for fuel bills as well - they drink like george best, and the insurance will be hefty as well - group 17. my car's group 16 and it costs me £525 a year and i'm an old c*nt with a clean license & full no-claims bonus  :wwww

go for a proper colour though and you'll have yourself a cracking car

150 ain't that great, I did 160+ in my Nissan 200sx  :;):

The Focus ST is a good car but it's still front wheel drive which isn't great with a lot of power as you get torque steel, also rear wheel drive is more fun to drive  :eyebrow

Depends what you what really at the end of the day.

A new car will depreciate by 30% when you drive it off the forecourt, so no great saving there like.
