They haven't sold out to anyone or anything, they're a business. They care about making money. It would be the worst business model in the history of the world if a car manufacturer said "Hey, let's forget about shareholders, and profits, let's just make cars for real enthusiasts!"

Of course you can't compare the cars, they're pretty much twice the price!!
Focus RS - £27,575
BMW M3 - £51,505
Merc C63 - £54,635
Audi RS4 - £51,000

I've driven three out of those four. I've also driven a selection of new Fords, and I stand by my comments.
