Autorama held an unexpected surprise for me this year, an imported 2009 Focus RS. After strolling through the show, then stopping by to say hello to a friend who had his car entered, a glint of spearmint green caught my eye. Curious what car had such a fugly color, I made my way towards it and there, hidden away in the corner of the show was my unobtainable (in the US) dream car. The people running the booth must have thought I was joking when I started telling them all the nasty things I wanted to do to the car, as they laughed and let me have my way with it. I had full run of the car save the engine compartment which I was told Ford would not allow to be opened despite my $100 bill waving in their face. After caressing every inch of accessable space, I waited for a promised "Ford man" to show up after the show ended, but he never did and my dream of a connected battery went unfulfilled.
