I hope they'd make a wagon version

And it better not be an I4

The new Focus RS has already been comfirmed to have a 2.3L Inline-4.

If it isn't turboed, could I at least get a V6?

Well, of course it's turbocharged. Why wouldn't it be?
The Focus ST is turbocharged, the previous ST & RS were turbocharged.

If they do make a wagon version why the hell would they change the engine? Then it wouldn't be a wagon version, it would be a completely different car. Why wouldn't it be turbo? Why wouldn't it be I4? The RS already have a turbo I4 engine. Why would it be a V6? No Focus has a V6. None of this makes any sense.
You do realize that the new RS has already debuted, correct?

Why a V6? That makes no sense with a Focus.

Because he wants it to be a Mustang wagon, with V6/V8, RWD..

I would think V8 for America, but ok.

Won't fit. Ecoboost V6 as big as it can go.

Nothing wrong with a turbo 4. Thank Chrysler for making the GLH. If they didn't, we'd still see GM J-cars trying to compete with '83 Honda Accords.

So because one example is bad, you make an assumption that all are bad.

Um...
Seriously though, I had no idea that a Fiesta RS was planned. That would be incredible.

I'm pretty sure it was hinted at recently.

So, a bit of hypothetical on the Fiesta RS - How much power does it get before it steps on the Focus ST's toes? Or does that all go out the window because of the RS badge being on the grille? Granted, not having AWD will keep it in its place - but how much will be too much? Do we really think Ford will give us the real goodies we want, or, will it be a lot of digital enhancement on the car?
I'd be happy with 230 BHP, with a real LSD, six-speed manual, 18" wheels/tires, and some level of adjustment on the suspension. Don't need much, but, that'd be enough to keep it from surpassing the Focus ST by too much.

The Fiesta ST is nearly a performance match for the Focus ST already. I don't think the Focus sells over the Fiesta on performance, it's just flat out a nicer car.
Also note that the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are barely different in price. $2,000 difference base to base, and the Fiesta ST can actually become more expensive than the Focus with a few options.

A Fiesta RS would make for a crazy pocket rocket.
