It looks nothing like it!!

I dont particularly like the styling of either cars but if I had to choose id have the ST & get the silver trim bits colour coded!! VXR looks like they are trying too hard & a bit max power inspired in my eyes.

Also - Find me a brand new VXR for 14500 - nope didnt think so, Ford wins in my eyes by a country mile!

Engines meant to remain the same as old ctr so certainly wont blow any of them away in terms of performance!!

Seem's like a pointless exercise, any car will become difficult to handle when you're giving it some with just one hand on the wheel

I'd be happy to have a torque steering monster. As it happens, closest I can get at the moment is madly thrashing the wheel from side to side as I hit the throttle.

none of them look good IMO

VXR looks over kitted
ST looks crap, like any new focus
CTR is minging
i'd spend my money on an S3
