Default New Focus RS

I am sure I saw a new Focus RS parked by the side of the road in Totton, Southampton yesterday. It was dark blue ( the only colour they come in ? )
Anyone seen one or got one yet?

Not seen any on the road (saw the one at ford fair)
There's 5 colours - white, 2 greys, black and nitrous blue (the best imo).
More colour options would have been nice really.

Was seriously considering getting one, but since I don't like my job any more the idea is on hold.

Nitrous blue isn't dark like the Imperial blue and I'm pretty sure no cars have been delivered yet, well no one has posted it up on FRSOC. Delays as per usual apparently.

I do have one on order (since October). I've seen a mock up one that was doing the rounds at my local dealer. It was left hand drive and had an ST drivetrain but looked like the RS.

I have only just been reading the Top Gear magazine article on the new Focus RS and I am sure it was one, wish I had gone back to check it out.

Could have been a demo car or even a journalist, looking forward to seeing what presence it has out on the open road

Must be one of the first, all the spots so far over on the FRSOC folk have said are press cars but they are coming soon, or so I'm told...
