The RS is now being scheduled.
For the week of Jan 11 they are scheduling build weeks of Feb 1.
Fore the week of Jan 18 they are scheduling build weeks of March 14,18 & 28.


What this means is if you have placed your orders your dealer should be able to let you know if it has been scheduled to be built. If so normal build time is about a week with about a 3 week transport (for a North American build).
Unsure about transit time on the RS at this point.

coming from Germany its likely we see increased transport times.

Does Ford offer online tracking for your order? So you can see when it's done being built, on the ship, etc.

 

[FWford]

Ford shows us where it is and an ETA for delivery. For example it might say " in transit at Kansas city rail head ETA week of 1/20.


Not sure what it will say while the car is being transported on a ship.

Wonder how long it takes for the factory to produce just one Ford Focus RS.

 

[FWford]

Every other Ford car is about 4-5 days of actual assembly including paint and such.

I've seen this method posted on another site so it may come handy when tracking your RS when it's on the ship.

Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics is the shipping company I think: https://www.2wglobal.com/webapps?minHt=480&htMethod=bodyLastElem&frameId=145210506576015918&url=https%3A%2F%2Fschedule.2wglobal.com%2FScheduleRWD%2F

Select Shipping Tools
Click "Track & Trace" in the drop down menu
I think Customer Reference Number is your vin, so once you put that in you should see where your car is while it's on a boat.
