Featuring an exterior designed by players of Forza Motorsport for Xbox, the striking car was driven to the event by former Top Gear star The Stig, who will also star in the Forza Motorsport 6 game for Microsoft's Xbox One console.

The event took place ahead of Gamescom, Europe's largest interactive games trade fair, which will take place from the 5th to the 9th August. Forza Motorsport 6 will make its European debut at Gamescom, going on sale to the public later this year.

This latest RS pioneers the innovative Ford Performance All-Wheel-Drive system and is the first RS to offer selectable Drive Modes  including industry-first Drift Mode  and Launch Control.

Dan Greenawalt, creative director at Turn 10 Studios in Redmond, Washington, U.S commented: "In Cologne we're excited to showcase the real all-new Focus RS clad in a special paint scheme created by the Forza community. During Gamescom, gamers will also get to see the Forza Motorsport 6 cover-car Ford GT in person."
