The final 500 Focus RSs will get an extra treat: an upgraded engine, to 350 horses (more like 345 in SAE measurements, but hey, who's counting) and 339 pound-feet of torque (up from 325). The engine is the usual Focus RS unit, itself a heavy rework of the Volvo 2.5-liter transverse-five-cylinder. But the mods for RS500 use are more than a mere chip remap.
for sale in the U.S. NEVER

Not for sale here as you mentioned AND going to be replaced here VERY soon with the new model. I'd actually look long and hard at the ST that they are talking about for us (US).

It's supposed to have around 250BHP ecoboost. Just as a DD to and from work...

I think the one above would be a blast to drive and just beat the shit out of it
