Depends what you want, the ST is an everyday car imo, not rare and not exactly a crime to leave parked up in a car park all day.
The RS is a bit more special, more of a pampered car.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
I had a focus rs for 3 years and loved it chip de cat and exh,now i have a new st with a dream science on it.I would say the rs was more raw but the st is more comfetable and it is now faster,i would not go back to a frs after having the st but you have to chip them.

Having driven both, and both being quite moddified, the ST was faster but felt slower than the RS.
I found the 5 pot ST was very smooth and progresive, and due too what felt like a better build quality you didn't realise what speed you was doing. Where as the RS felt much more raw, you felt like you actually going faster then you was if you get what I mean.
Very hard to choose... as a day in day out car i'd say ST, as a weekend toy, then i'd go for the RS.

From a pure aesthetic P.O.V I think a Focus RS coming up behind you is alot more intimidating.
There is one round my parts that has black wheels and it looks mean... Driven by a laaaaady too
