2002 Ford Focus FR100 Concept

[psonefreak]

I was bored and lookin around Fast-Autos.net and found this. that 2002 Ford Focus FR100 Concept. Only, it looks like an OLD.. like older than mine... F100.

Why would this be called a Focus? or did the site mess up?

Maybe the screwed up on the "Focus" part. But the Fr100 part is right. The FR200 is the real Focus.

I think the web site got things a bit confused. The picture portrays the FR100: a pick-up concept, based on the 1953 model. 5.0L Cammer engine, blah, blah, blah.

There also exist separte FR200 Focus and FR500 Mustang concepts.

Mostly, it all seems like SEMA stuff. Nothing truly of substance; mostly marketing fluff aimed at the "youth segment". More Alpine RSX than Vanquish 20-20.

Weird car...

I'm sorry but that is just horrible, why try and design your own focus can't they just bring the RS to America?

I hope that FR200 stays a concept.

I hope you're referring to the RS (which is only available in blue), because no color change could "fix" the FR200.

I like the FR200. Don't like the looks, bet it moves like ****.

The "best" cars at SEMA are not for driving. They're carpet queens. The most any of them can really do is go fast in a straight line. The brakes are more for show than actually functioning well.

A good analogy is your average contractor: If he's got clean, expensive clothes, a brand new Milwaukee drill, and tools that sparkle, don't expect him to know anything other than how to add up the price sheet.
