I prefer blue.

If you get the orange one, you'll never lose it in a car park, unless someone fills the place with a fleet of Lambo Gallardos!!

Gotta say the ST is really growing on me. I thought it looked no where near as good as the old Focus RS and don't like the orange but now really starting to like it. They look great in blue

Yes

Absolutely awesome, none of you will be disappointed if you buy one.

The chassis is amazing and the engine is something else as well

Blue....... the orange is a fasion colour, and fashions invariably change, it will of course be harder to resell..... a bit like a yellow VW Corrado....
