    Focus RS - what's the deal?

    It's featured on the Ford AU website and listed on carsales as well as Red Book...

    So is it available to buy or what?

    You'd think so, but some of the WA prices i have seen have been 10 - 20k higher than the east coast. Must be cars in general over there?

    What do mean - can you buy one ??? What have you been smoking ??? Click here to enlarge of course they're available for purchase...

    Seriously unless I'm mistaken or the adds are bogus, there's dozens up for grabs on all the major classifieds, there are something like nearly 100 for sale on carsales alone !!! who says they're nearly all gone ??? it's a niche vehicle for an even smaller interested niche group who'd want to buy one...just wait a little while and they'll be giving them away for alot less, like Ford are doing ATM with the XR5T because after the initial small uptake, no one else wants them and there are still heaps left over of those too...

    http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/...tk=CarAll&D=RS

    and the pricing isn't as high as some people were posting up on other earlier threads, like 80-90k...

    There going for between 63-69k drive away as is...

    Go for it BEK Click here to enlarge

    Not exactly true,but does happen.
    Think it is called the Luxury Car Tax !
    I know a few people who have purchased cars new from the East and landed them back here registered as Eastern States cheaper than the best WA dealer price.
    Or maybe the WA Ford dealers don`t think the public is that smart.

    Price should be 60k plus on roads. Talking to the guys on the xr5 forum, the WA guys have found 80k price tags for some reason with the dealers not willing to go down on price. On saying that, aparently there is a nsw dealer trying similar
