Ford cancels the Fiesta RS

Ford Fiesta RSWe heard lots of rumors back in February about Ford, dropping the RS badge! These rumors turned to be official news and the British media announced today that the Fiesta RS will not be built! Yes, this was revealed by the director of Ford Team RS, Mr. Jost Capito, in a recent interview made by Evo Magazine. But why they want to do such a thing? Well, according to our sources the manufacturer considers that the new vehicle will not generate such big profits and it will be better, that in these hard financial times, to avoid this kind of vehicles.

    hi i just found out about the fiesta rs being dropped because of profit margin i have the last fiesta rs1800 made its a classic i think that if they make 500 new rs fiestas there will be a big waiting list for them i think they will be very succesful and wont be very amused if they dont produce the fiesta rs !!!

    I am in the market for a new subcompact hatchback car. I have read about the Fiesta and decided to wait until it comes out–purportedly in March. Now it isn’t going to happen? My husband and I are investors in Ford stock–we wanted to support what we invest in and truly wanted to buy this car. I find it hard to believe that it won’t be released in the U.S. What is Ford thinking?!
