For today's in depth video we head to VMP Performance with an opportunity to drive their SEMA built Focus RS that they bought for ONE DOLLAR. This Focus RS has carbon fiber all the way around by Anderson Composites, has airlift suspension, and so much more. This Focus RS review was challenging while in the rain, but thank goodness for all wheel drive. Thanks for watching!

And the revenge of the car reviews...begins.
New car review every Tuesday,Thursday, and Saturday..ALL MONTH LONG! Working to make it happen and I Love you guys.
ThatDudeinBlue I love you more dude
Not as much as me girl🙄😍
The backpack at 0:38
I think you should build a dude in blue Sema car.
I went out for a Mustang, got a mustang, but not what I was expecting, so went back to the dealer heard of an RS, sooooo unfortunately, no RS in stock sold OUT. Nor will they ever be (SNAP!!) until it came to my eye the last ST on the flor, unsold Race Red and man oh man I do not regret it a bit. No mods yet, but soon looking for the Ford Performance exhausts and can't wait to start building my little bad ass machine. So thank you Ford for allowing us ,enthusiasts, to modify our set of wheels, that other car company's do not. Great vlogs thx.
Thanks for showing the Focus some love! Sometimes its badassery gets lost among all the ponies here at the shop!
I'll make you an offer you can't resist $2🤑
@@coachmcguirkmrs8805 gonna need about tree fiddy
@@coachmcguirkmrs8805 Offer him $69 DUDE!! (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures reference)
The exhaust sounds awesome.
@@UnorthodoxMasterOfGames nice
Not impressed. You can get like 10 chicken nuggets for a dollar at Burger King. 10. You only got 1 car.
This man knows what's up.
We found the chosen one
in sweden we get 9 piece nugget meal at McDonalds for 80ish$ lul
The king lost his marbles
@@MrZyLeXx I bet you mean 80 cents, if that's the case the10 piece is a better deal...
So basically you open up a performance shop, and you get cars for $1. Sounds like a sweet deal
It’s clickbait
@@connoisseuroftigolbitts no it isnt, Ford literally sold it to VMP for $1 for SEMA.
@@connoisseuroftigolbitts not clickbait, we've gotten two of them for $1 each.
Step 1) Open performance shop
Step 2) ???????
Step 3) $1 Mustang
@Power 2 Weight hes the worst
Love the editing in the video! Your new style came out very well, I enjoyed that you kept showing off different angles of the car, sound clips and such! One thing I’ve always wanted out of your old reviews was more shots of the car so I could really see everything and take it all in, can’t wait for future reviews!
Great video, David. I got the last 2018 Race Red RS my local Ford dealer had and I'm so glad I did. It's everything you say it is and a total blast to drive. Too bad they're gone.
David you’re close to a million!!
Monster Crazy 🙏🏼
He gains subs really slowly though. It’s be 3-12 months
Good to see these cars still getting some love 🤙🏻
Absolutely love your car reviews. I don't think they could ever get old to me. Even if you were to review a car that is the same make an model you have already reviewed, all modified cars are different and unique. I could watch you review two of the same cars that are extremely similar and yet you will find those differences and point them out. Hope one day I can get one of my cars reviewed by you.
I remember watching your "1000" subscriber special 5 years ago, now your almost 1 million, awesome!
Loving all the dope reviews brotha!!! You're so close to a Million subs!!
editing has been straight Fire.
I clicked this video so fast hoping it was your fox!
@@Lethal_Venom haha. Im sure it will be out one of these days. But he did a ton of cars and probably more idk about. And some of them put my fox to shame.
I love my RS. It’s my daily driver and puts a smile on my face everyday. I find the engine’s upper power band more than acceptable and have no problem accelerating even in 6th gear.
That’s pretty awesome!! You’re close to a million too!!
Usually not one for murdered out cars, but this.
This looks good
The videos are always fire whenever he's been to Florida
Love VMP, love TDIB, makes for a great video!
We
Launch control on the RS never gets old. I love mine!
Always has been and always will be the best car reviewer tbh
I just got my RS like 4 months ago and love it every day I drive it! 😁
Thanks for sharing this car with us I always thought the focus was a little cheap thing but my friend has a base model and kind of surprised it never breaks down its quick for what it is and it has very good gas mileage but the rs and st are pretty impressive to me so my mind has changed on these cars and I pay close attention to what you think about the cars you drive because you drive everything 😊 thank you David and God bless you buddy
Hey ThatDudeinBlue awesome video I wish I had that car it looks so cool and the sound off the turbo is totally awesome.
YES! I KNEW HE WAS GONNA COME BACK WITH ALOT! HELL YEA
I daily drive an RS, its so much fun
i love the RS and have always wanted one. a couple years ago i had a focus LX and it was a fun zippy little car, i could throw it into corners like a champ but i always wished i could have an RS, and that bodywork on that VMP RS is the dream version, looks amazing, and the fact it has airbags so you dont really have to worry about taking the front lip off going over speed bumps 100% makes it, not only looks amazing but practical too
Sounds good for sure🔥
Man, the RS is such an awesome car. Every time I drive My grin goes from ear to ear.
Great review my dude its minus 40 where I live so it's fun to be able to see someone out having fun in a car haha
It bothers me that the owner wasn't wearing his seat belt...It surprises me how many people don't care about safety
Ikr I'll be sitting with my friends in my car and the seat belt bell is dinging loud as fuck and they are just talking and I'm like mate put your fucking sestbelt on I don't want to be picking your teeth out of my dashboard
Austin James Baldovino I’ve been in a rollover wreck and wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. Was told that not wearing the seatbelt is what saved my life because I was ejected from the seat and where I was sitting was crushed flat. From then on I have never worn a seatbelt. I’m also not the only person who has been told that same thing.
max well honestly it depends on the situation man. You got lucky. Not every accident is like yours. Maybe I shouldn’t assume that wearing a seatbelt will always save a life. But you shouldn’t assume that not wearing a belt will save your life every single time either.
For MOST accidents, wearing a belt can prevent you from getting ejected. Getting ejected is what USUALLY gets people killed due to trauma.
In your case, getting crushed was the reason that your accident almost killed you. Getting ejected saved your life in this case. You’re willing to bet your life that your next accident would kill you by crushing instead death by ejection? That’s on you man. Like seriously what are the chances that your next accident would be the same as your last?
Austin James Baldovino well coming from only driving trucks the big concern is a roll over. In a car my big worry would be speed that I couldn’t get stopped or being hit by a larger vehicle. With it being a truck though I don’t worry about going fast all that much and most of the trucks I drive don’t have strong enough roofs to hold up to a roll over. Now if I drove a newer pick up that actually had some power and better roof strength then of course I’d trust their safety systems and wear a seatbelt. Just not in these older ones
@@austinjamesbaldovino5328 what do we do im now confused af
Dope song selection!!!
Gotta love the no seat belt lol
Kind of weird he knows how to work on cars but doesn’t understand what happens when you wreck and the car suddenly stopes moving
I honestly loved the idea of these cars man. Love hatches, manual, AWD, good power. It came down to those recalls scaring the crap out of me man :S
So close to 1millllll! I subbed around 200k :)
Dna Drewzy me too man the first vid I saw it was 89 red skyline gtst
The old Dave is BACK!!!!!!!!! HELL YES
I’m 34. I graduated HS in 2002, I dreamed of an STI ever since. I test drove an RS though and loved it. I considered buying it over the STI but the dealership here on Maui wanted $55k PLUS FEES for it. So I bought my 2018 STI for $15k less and I love my car. I really appreciate Ford making the RS. And selling it here in the US. But the head gasket fiasco and Insaine dealer markups turned me away. I’m sure a lot of people had a similar experience. That and everyone buys crossovers and SUVs now. So RIP Focus RS you are missed, and never forgotten🥺
It’s too bad because there are some used examples with low miles and fixed head gaskets in the 30k range especially in my area. I want either this or an STi but I’ll make my choice when they update the STi and if it fails to wow me then Focus Rs used it is!
I'll give you $2 dollars for it.. in fact, Ill give you my $2 bill.
Sigrafix bro I was gonna day the same thing
I'll give him my two $2 bills for it.
$10
Well I'll match your two $2 bills and raise you a Snicker's bar.
Dude tht bookbag at the beginning of the video when you launched was like oh shit! Lol the VMP Focus RS is dope!
You know it!
I got to see this car in person at PITS last year, very cool car. I'm a big fan, so I was excited when we finally got the RS, and even sadder when it's left already. Hopefully I can afford to have one, one day, before they are too collectible.
basically my dream daily right here. bagged RS with some tasteful appearance/performance mods.
Damn that thing looks incredible slammed!
Love my St, would probably really dig the the RS, looking fwd to driving one soon.
Once you sample the RS the ST just doesn’t do it for you anymore. The launch control is straight up savage! I loved the one I reviewed.
That Focus is sick!
We think so too!
Love my rs, super fun/practical car that can be enjoyed year round.
Your typical fantastic job, David! Loving my Edge ST in Ford Performance BLUE--despite any haters. ;-)
Saaweett, Gotta love a focus rs, especially with a little VMP Touch
😏
I still cant believe i drive one everyday! Ive loved evey mile so far! With a tune i think it can punch well above its weight too!
Ah..the dying breed. So sad Ford won't make them anymore
In US...
@@noahz2275 Yep just US.
@@youngpark8338 I was hoping to finance an ST or RS after college buuuuuut with them killing them off not sure if i want to. I have an SE and not sure if I wanna toy with it to my liking or just buy a completely different car. Sad thing is I love the focus lol
@@noahz2275 Well, not sure if it helps but, I bought an Lexus ISF couple weeks ago knowing Lexus stopped producing them from 2014. Only 5118 of them were sold in US (confirmed by Lexus) and around 11k of them were sold worldwide. Sure there are many other things to consider, but if it's going to put smile on your face at the end of the day, then I'd say go for it. Plus, don't put yourself in shoes where keep wondering what would it be like to have ST or RS while you're playing with SE. It's not healthy for you.
@@youngpark8338 Wow. Who knew the internet could be so wholesome. Thanks dude.
i love my rs, and i enjoy driving it every single day
That bag in the back caught me off guard when it moved haha
Road to 1 mil!!!
Awe man that car is hot looking! I've always been a vw guy, but that car looks mean, like pick a fight mean, I love it!
I love cars i love pops and bangs and flames and all engine sizes and this one was really cool just as cool as pop up head lights 😊
That first launch made your backpack, which was laying down, standup!
I love the RS really wish to own one someday and Ford really needs to keep going on the RS program with the focus
TDIB is baaaack!! Wooo!!
THE BEST CAR REVIEWER ON TH-cam
Keaton Collins thank you!
Keaton Collins agreed!
Him and Doug
Juan Fiallo Doug sucks. He isn’t a real car guy
@@jrcautomotive4319 how, you dont even know him. Stfu you sound ignorant
*I want a RS for my second car! Currently have a 2016 Veloster Turbo. Love that car but the RS would be a nice step up.*
Love the rs
C'mon guys lets get David to 1 million, Hes so close.
i bought one... love it.. would really like an RS4 avant in a manual though.
I’m not a ford gal, but my god.... this is unreal 😍😍
Glad you like it!
@VMPPerformance Me too
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
This makes me want to talk my friend into modding his RS even more now😂
You are right. Dealer markups and just the dealer experience in general has ruined some of the greatest cars. I think we are at the point where we should just be able to purchase vehicles straight from the manufacturer, same price for everyone, no markup crap, no dealing with shady salesmen, and the whole "let me go talk to my manager", its all BS. In my opinion has ruined the excitement or purchasing a new vehicle.
Now that's a good lookin rs
Agreed!
Beautiful car
I have an ST. Goddamn I'm in love. Best looking, fastest hatchback/ sports car for the money on the market today
I have a 2018 limited edition in race Red :) I love it... really fast on e30
Almost a million Subs
Nice RS keep up the good work 😊 😀😀 😊😊 😀😀 😊😊 😀
0:36 DAVID SECURE THE BAGGGGGGGG IT'S FLOPPIN AROUND BACK THERE 💀😂😂😂
I really want those damn rims. They look great
Right? We thought so too!
That backpack woke up from its nap when he launched😂
I drive a Focus, and I love the Focus. It is so fun to drive, such a great daily! 👏😎 Mine is named Ilene. Lol.
That is one cool Ford
0:40 David's face 0 to 100 real quick lol
Awesome
I'm so glad I got to pick up a Focus RS before they were gone. Love these cars to death, they do basically everything well. Truly my zero compromises car (well, except for the stupid tiny fuel tank).
Omg the tank capacity is so bad lol
@@BabaYagaRacing You're on e30 too right? Can't imagine how bad that's gotta be, digging your content btw, good shit.
That’s one hot RS
That backpack went for a ride on the first pull. Haha
Never clicked a video so fast
When it came to Ford making any stunningly amazing decisions, it's when they created the Focus RS sportsline👍 sure there were a few sporty cars they made back in the day, but nothing like the RS, which is awesome 😎Hey DAVID!! YOUR ALMOST AT 1 MILL🤯 AWESOME SAUCE🤘
Dope car.
Can't wait for the 2020 focus rs and st.
Not coming to the U.S sadly
@@BabaYagaRacing yeah sorry dude.
I have an ST and hope to upgrade to an RS in the near future. I think it is a great all around car. What other car has the features of an RS?........AWD, Turbo, 4 door, fold seats down and it's like a van for hauling things, drift mode, launch control, and so on. I'm mean you get the best of all worlds with the RS. You can use it as a family car and getting groceries by day and drag race your buddies at night. One of the best and most versatile cars made in my opinion.
And you can snap a turtle box to the top and take your family on a camping trip with that AWD. I swear, Focus RS, Evos, and WRXs are perfect family/car guy cars.
Michael Reitz I own an St as well, but I cant justify upgrading to an Rs. I rather just keep the st and buy a different vehicle. I guess it’s due to the fact that the Rs is very similar to St, but improved.
RS3
@@jacobtharp4977 those are a lot more like at least 10-15 thousand more
Golf R fits all that. But when you get it with dsg its faster than a stock rs
The problem with the gasket came from a wrong part installed on the engine rather than it not being beefy ;) They installed Mustang EcoBoost engine gaskets - even though they are super similar, they have different coolant "holes" and somehow they were able to mix two up...
nope it was block shift
@@ianvader4697 They did have gasket issues though which warped heads and seized engines.
@@ianvader4697 Please explain why problem went away after recall if block shift?
I just got a Focus RS a week ago today
You brought up a good point.I wish all car manufactures would put a hold on how much money they can add to special like cars.Dodge did it so I dont see why other manufactures cant follow."Thats why the rs didn't sell as well"
0.29 already liked the video 🎶
I'll give you $2
I need about 🌲fiddy
ill give 100
110
$115 and a mc chicken. I'll even throw in my chevy sonic (the bad one) for free.
Well, I'm out
The ST and RS are part of the car culture here in the UK.
U should do a review on the 2019 camero.
Dealer mark ups are insane here in aus. RS’s are sitting at dealers with 45-55k price tag on them. Crazy
0:38 the backpack was like “oh shit”
His backpack got a rude awakening on the first pull lmao. I’m surprised it didn’t buckle up 😂
I need that launch control limiter on my st 🤤
Im surprised that VMP left the start/stop feature after tuning it. Just about all ecu tunes have that tuned out.
Focus RS? I watch I like
Bruh the bag went flying
