Anyone seen a GT-R or Focus RS on the road yet ?

How do they look in the flesh ?

Anyone have a dice with either yet ?

seen a snot coloured RS Focus, looked bloody awefull. Been through Halfords front and rear windows by the look of it.

Driven by a young looking guy as well!!!

Definately a car to get nicked I recon.

as for the GTR!!! the exhausts are like mortar launchers and the sound was seizmic!!

Looked like an Arab bunker!

Saw a black GTR on the m/way, looked very nice with monster pipes. Seen a Focus RS in green and totally agree with the Halfods comment!

I saw a white GT-R last year in Hong Kong, and you're right it looked like something from Star Wars. (In a good way.) I've only just seen my first one over here though - a dull grey one with black wheels and it looked far more appropriate for these shores. Almost subtle even.

I haven't seen any Focus RSs yet, but then I don't live in Essex.

Girl at work has a White GT-R... in the carpark daily - evil looking thing especially from the rear! (not my taste - the car I mean!) Black GTR near my place of work and seen a dark red (odd colour) one on the motorway.

Also the chap I bought my RS4 from is expecting his GTR in September.

and Ive seen numerous Fcukus RS's on my work commute daily... white and blue ones (not all that when you see one pootle by)..

at least when ours go in for warranty work or a service we dont get a fiesta or a micra hey!!

Don't think you'll have to wait that long Jonathon, 2 years maybe ?

Seen two white GT-R's and and balck one, one lurid Green Focus RS and a blue one

Was beside the GT-R and had the kids in the car but suffice to say you could tell the acceleration was far better than an RS4. Just a pity both white GT-R drivers drove like absolute knobs.

The Focus is pretty quick but you can fairly easily pull a gap on one from a rolling start. by the time we got slightly over the wrong side of the National speed limit ther was a clear car length in it.

Given the horrow stories on the GT-R and Nismo forums about servicing costs of a GT-R and warranty issue (or should I say lack of warranty) and big brother contsantly on board I won't be getting one, cheaper to have an LP560-4.

From what I've read of roadtests of the GT-R, it's quite a 'clinical' drive and there's no real character to it until you're giving it berries on a twisty road, then it comes alive. But how often are you ging to get a chance to do that before you're waving goodbye to your license. I'd have to get an extended test drive in one before I could make a decision - plus, it's still not a V8 is it?!
