    What
    A performance escape would be a better choice? How... the new escape sucks as a consumer car. There's no appeal for a performance version. I would rather a performance Edge.

    Fiesta RS would be cool. What are Fiesta ST sales compared to focus ST?

    What ford really needs to do is come out with a Bronco.

    Ah, then I see the reason for no Fiesta RS. But the escape ST has to be a joke.

    Yep, thanks to NA and our desire for SUVs, hot hatches just dont sell.

    Might as well price an existing SUV up higher with a slightly bigger engine and some cosmetic performance tweaks !!

    Damn. That sucks to hear. I knew the FiST would have a smaller target market but not that much smaller.

    In the US I don't think they sell more than about 4000 Fiesta ST's per year, and under 500 in Canada.

    Not really surprising, the Focus ST has a lot more room and just makes a more practical car.
    Under 500 in Canada?

    I find that hard to believe, these things are like friggin' cockroaches in Edmonton (in a good way), I see more of these on a daily basis than I do GTI's! Canada probably has a WAY higher per capita take up rate than the USA does.

    That happens to me a lot. I think its a fiesta then notice the centered exhaust and realize its a focus.

    I've seen 3 FiSTs in Calgary so far, oddly enough 2 in airdrie
