The RS is getting mixed reviews on the track, it looks like it needs a few tweaks to really get it going, but those tweaks should be relatively easy.

UGH that Grabber blue is just ugly.
-
It seems pretty similar to metallic version of Grabber Blue (there was a GB Mustang a couple of rows behind it in the paddock). I liked it because it was not Red, White, Black, or some shade of Silver/Grey. I also like that Ford has an exclusive color for the FiST, FoST, and FoRS.
-
I like the blue, I wouldnt buy one with that color but I like it. If I bought one it would be white, but all my experiences with turbocharged cars leave something to be desired, at least for autocross/track use.
drift mode looks fun

Can't be a Mustang in disguise... It didn't barrel through a crowd on it's way into the wall. [emoji15]

Well it was a good airbag test.
Are they using Takata bags?

In the end its "Still and Ford" "Found On Road Dead" POS
Also that color is ugly color and should me only used for Rustangs. -

Yes it's a Ford & it isn't the prettiest, but it's a damn fast one. I'd hazard a guess a properly set up RS would put a pretty good whooping on some other cars at the track.
The color is one of my favorite parts of the RS. Come on Dave we all know blue is faster than red. :wink: -
Call me crazy (no don't) but I love the way it looks. I drove a ST and it was a blast to drive. If the RS is like the ST and I am sure it is better it will be a very fun car. I even like the Blue. I saw a white one in person and thought it look great!
"we all know blue is faster than red" Um........ lets not get sacrilegious. -
I have to admit, I like the looks, and love the grabber blue. I like it even better on a mustang, but it still looks good on the RS. There is a uk mini done in grabber blue with a black roof, looks good on a mini too.

I think the previous generation RS also looked way better than this one.

It's not Grabber Blue! Grabber Blue is a solid with no metallic, Ford is calling this Nitrous Blue and it's actually loaded with a fine metallic... It doesn't photograph well though, but the color is F-56ing AMAZING! [emoji2] It's almost like those Snowflake Mirrors I did last year but without the heavy flake. [emoji6]
Agreed with Dave, I don't like that it's a 4-door even if it's a stiffer chassis.... And nothing is really there to make me like the look past the paint. [emoji20]
