Looks good - except for the hood-to-front fascia line in the front grille area. It looks like a shoddy mismatch. If it came with a good, simply effective (not ridiculously over-complicated LanEvo X or STi type) AWD system and a kickbutt turbo version of the 2.3L or the one in the MS3 - I'd buy one. Make mine Royal or Grabber Blue.

Ford Europe does a phenomenal job with their RS models. Offer this stateside in a sedan variant and I might be tempted myself but for two issues.
One, I'm not interested in a turbocharged, 300hp, fwd car unless it has awd no matter how well sorted they claim it to be.
Two, even without awd I'm betting the price tag for this will be very close to STi/Evo money which is more than I'm willing to spend on a fwd, C segment car 300hp or otherwise. Again, throw in awd and the story might be different.

I think the front needs a little massaging also, but its not awful. Give that thing 250hp through all 4 wheels and keep it south of 30K and you've got a winner. They won't be able to make enough.
