We here at Interstate Ford were wondering: have you had a chance to meet out our beloved American brand's hot hatch, the 2017 Focus RS? Well, if not, we hate to be the bearer of bad news, but:

You may well be missing out.

Fret not, however, as AutoGuide.com Road Test Editor Dan Ilika is here to bring you up to speed. Link up with him in the clip below:

Without a doubt its headlining attraction, the Focus RS's turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine is altogether out of this world.

Joining with a six-speed manual transmission, this four-banger musters a massive 350 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. All-wheel drive is served up standard.

Also worth noting is the Focus RS's acceleratory abilities, as it's capable of achieving the 0-to-60 mph sprint in a scant 4.7 seconds.

So, what's the hold-up, faithful friend? The time is now to experience the splendor of this speedster. As such, we invite you to pop by our Miamisburg, OH facility, whereupon we'll happily arrange a test drive in the Focus RS, or any other Ford model that's made your short list.
