lol im just trying to find some kind of level thats fair to compare the 2 as if you look at things like this :
fully moded cosworth - been proven over 1000bhp yet the focus hasnt had the 25 years that the sierra has had to reach that yet, so obviously the highest spec focus vs highest spec sierra cosworth = cosworth wins but its unfair
standard forms - focus rs has a standard 80+ odd bhp more but from what i see not alot of potential for alot more atm with it being new, whereas the sierra does - so another unfair way of looking at it
btcc cars - the rules are different to what they were back then and you got away with alot more back then and im prety sure the btcc spec sierra rs500 would be all over the focus btcc car of today - so another unfair challenge to compare them by
only way i see its fair is to give them an even +bhp level and see how the running gear handles with it round a track, fair comparison on engine power and running gear with old technology against new surely?

For me there is only one true RS500 and it came in the form a Ford Sierra that was produced in the 80's
this focus 500 is a sales ploy by ford imo to generate sales and is aimied at anorak type plums with too much money who will go out and buy the car, the mk1 focus rs on it release saw such people paying an extra 5k over the original retail price just to 'get' one before other people, fucking stupid if you ask me as you can now get a mk1 focus rs for 7k
no car that ford will produce now or in the future will ever rival the 'cult status of a cosworth imo and before anyone harks on about the gt40 blah blah blah, I talking about cars that are affordable to the masses and not just rich cunts with their heads stuck up their own arses

so all people that buy Ford GT's are 'rich cunts with their heads up their own arses?'
I have found it to be the complete OPPOSITE! normally owned by PROPER petrol heads and car enthusiasts!
the cunts buy Italian!
