I'll admit, I'm not a Ford guy, they've never appealed to me, but the new Focus (ST) looks really good, which got me thinking about the new RS when it launches.

Would someone mind humoring me on when it is likely we'll see the Focus RS launch, and when the order books will open? Are they generally limited run, or sought after in the first instance? If so, would buying an ST as an interim bump me up the list.

Sorry if these questions seem random, I'm use to Porsche and the hoops you have to jump through to get GT products.

If there's going to be an RS ,they always take ages to launch it way later than the rest of the range.

It's still pure speculation at this point though.
I think the above 2020 prediction is far too soon because the RS model is traditionally released after the current models mid life facelift, so If previous patterns are followed we shouldn't expect to see a Mk.4 Focus RS any earlier than 2021, or more likely 2022.
