My FG6T is a great car and I've been real happy with it. Dream to drive. HEAPS of grunt. Coming up to 4 years old and due for replacement I've been looking very closely at the Focus ST scheduled to arrive in OZ late Q3. Man this machine is an absolute weapon. The wife has a Titanium and I am imensely impressed with the build quality and features. When you add a ballsy engine to it, I really am attracted to it over the 6T. Have booked the first test drive with the dealer when it arrives. AT $40 -45K rumoured price, this could be the way to go. The FG II doesn't give me any great improvement over the FG I. Another option is a Phoon or GS but at 20K more is it a real option? I guess the test drive will be the key. One way or the other this ST looks like a real winner. Some good promos on Utube.
