There’s always going to be rivalry between car makers and with the 2013 Ford Focus ST, they’ve gone and done a short comparison with a few of them just to make an indication as to what’s better than some.

<!--more-->And, the rest are the Mazdaspeed3, Subaru WRX and the VW’s Golf GTi – all of which offer a four-cylinder turbo-charged engine under the hood of a five-door hatchback. And, just to add a little touch of fun, they’ve also included the likes of one V8-powered BMW M3.

It initially seemed that the Focus ST is capable enough to take on the M3 with its 252bhp and 366Nm of torque from its turbo-charged 2.oL ECO-Boost engine, but how does that compare with the M3’s 420bhp and 400Nm of torque? Be ready for a smirk to emerge at the end of the clip!

Hi guys, am getting my next project car... It's a Civic EG (local) still
in its ori condition. Already has a B16A auto just transplanted in there
for the enjoyable DOHC VTEC experience.

Now shopping for a pair of good sports seats (Recaro, SSCUS, Sparco...
donno yet, all I know is it must be red colour :) and probably to re-
uphols the whole rear seats. Momo steering is a must item too :)

Any ideas on how to go next? Prob a K&N mushroom air filter to help the
engine breathe...
