Ford revealed today more details on the 2009 Focus RS to be previwed at the paris auto show next month. The production version will be revealed in July 2009 at the London Motor Show and sales will begin shortly after.

Ford is confirming performance target figures for Focus RS as 0-100km/h in under 6.0 seconds and a top speed of 260 km/h or more. We would give you the figures in miles-per-hour, but Ford decided that the Focus RS is not something the U.S. wants, ha!

Ford will use the show car's bright green metallic paint finish it calls ‘Ultimate Green’ on the production RS. Ford says it is a both a modern interpretation of the 1970s Ford Le Mans Green and a reflection of the livery worn by Ford’s World Rally Championship Focus cars. The Focus RS will also be available in Ford Performance Blue and Frozen White, each with the choice of blue or green color matched interior. A full black leather option will be available for all three exterior colors.
