Why is every car you build so nice? How do you do that? You'd think you'd have made at least one thats not awesome by now????

I never thought I'd say that, but a Pink focus RS looks totally awesome!

I was sat on the fence with this undecided, untill i saw those pics.
That looks friggin stunning!
Awesome work, fair play to you, the wheels are perfect for it!
I personally prefer it with the black defuser (as photoshopped), but either way it looks good!

why not just put some standard hoses on it to get it running if you want to drive it? surely not a massive job to swap them over when the pink ones arrive/

A big HELL NO to the two exhausts, but I'd look at Guido Ellmer's old Focus Cossie project thread. He made a carbon diffuser, similar to what's on a Lotus Elise. Paul Johnson's also done one out of aluminium

What a great looking car, so different! Everything on it looks spot on....... the wheels, the interior, even the calipers etc. Not one for the purists but who cares about that, on the Focus RS stands this year, thats gonna have crowds round it lol.......... love it!
