Racking up 45 million-plus views on YouTube, Ken Block’s Gymkhana Nine featured some seriously death-defying stunts, including a drift in front of a moving train and a figure-eight atop a rising drawbridge. At the heart of that performance was his Ford Focus RS RX, a beast featuring 600hp and all the fittings of an FIA World Rallycross-spec competitor.
And now it can be yours. Starting 5:30EDT on October 22nd, Ken Block’s 2016 Ford Focus RS RX will be going up for auction through Barrett-Jackson. Though it’s not street legal, it comes specced just as it appeared in the video, ready for you to lay down some serious hoonage of your own. Under the hood, it’s powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine designed with input from Ford Performance and M-Sport U.K. Mated to a Sadev 5-speed sequential transmission, rear differential, and center differential release unit, it’s a choice-cut setup ideal for tire-slaying drifts. Inside, you’ll find a race-ready cockpit fitted with an FIA-spec roll cage, RECARO seats, and an M-Sport multi-function steering wheel. Riding on O.Z. 17×8 wheels, it comes wrapped in some authentic rallycross tires. All proceeds will go to Team Rubicon for the benefit of military veterans.
