I've seen mention of the innacurate Focus 'cage in the RCMG Yahoo group: What exactly is wrong with it?

Everything.
The roll cage is molded as the 1999 version roll cage, Ford Rallye Sport changed the roll cage 3 times since then.

Re: Project Focus+Focus

Both Foci are looking great! A shame the decals in Hasegawa's '03 kit don't fully capture the iridescent nature of the real livery.
