ST Sedan?

Anybody see the lastest ish of the UK version of Top Gear;it's got a feature on the Focus ST Estate and it got solid reviews.

I looked at a sedan for a few seconds, and by how much one dealer was pushing it I'm guessing you're not alone. I couldn't stand it myself, and in a small car I think it's pointless, but that's just me. My last vehicle was an Explorer Sport Trac, it had a lot more room in the back for stuff, which is part of why I went with the hatch.

Ford should offer an ST kit so people could make a sedan ST if they wanted to

How do you make a kit out of that? An appearance kit? performance kit? Isn't the entire drivetrain different?

I was thinking a turbo kit, but I guess the standard focus drivetrain might not be able to handle the extra power without a ton of more mods, so scrap that thought XD

Not to mention that the ST would no longer be the "ST" and Ford looses that niche in the market.

Are you saying you have the power to make something like this happen?
