 Brand new 2012 Ford Focus SEL. I got an incredibly deal on it and on my trade in. -leather seats -Ford Sync & Touch -Sony Audio; 10 speakers and subwoofer -rain sensing wipers -Select Shift transmission (is like a paddle shifter but with buttons instead of paddles) -Ambient lighting in the foot-wells, doors, and behind the door handles -Remote start -17 inch wheels -Back up sensors This is my first new car and it is awesome. Definitely is not like the focus of yesteryear!

mAlfunkti0n posted:I finally get to post a new car (my Civic finally died). Congrats man! I like the color.  mine:  If you want to get ford OEM accessories for it cheap: http://www.partscheap.com/2012-2013-Ford-Focus-Accessories-s/469.htm I bought the engine cover, rear cargo mat, and have the mudflaps on order. and you should definitely become a member of: http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/ You should also invest in a Steeda rear sway bar. this thing makes a huge difference! http://www.steedafocus.com/parts/2012-ford-focus-rear-swaybar.html You can also replace your rear engine mount with an OEM Mazdaspeed3 motormount. I did not really notice a difference with my DCT transmission, but others who have the MT say it really makes the car feel better. Also, order a K&N air filter from amazon IMMEDIATELY. It makes the car breathe so much easier and quieter. The car already comes with a cone filter, the K&N is just superior in every way. Supposedly the Steeda short throw shifter is a must have too.

Geoj posted:Honestly the only reason to register on FocusFanatics or FocalJet is to access the buy/sell/trade forums. Posting on either on a regular basis is a soul-sucking experience (so many boy racers asking how to make their third or fourth hand MkI Focus faster on a $150 budget.) FF in particular is poorly moderated - I left after being threatened with a ban because I told someone that the trip computer in his car was optimistically estimating his fuel economy and FJ is overrun by a bunch of douchebags who answer most questions with "lol check the FAQ n00b." I will give you that a lot of the guys do say SEARCH THREAD HISTORY LOL but for the most part they are very knowledgeable. I had a pretty big issue with my focus, and being a member I was able to talk directly with a ford customer service rep who lurks on the site. Explaining my situation with him lead to me getting a 3 year FREE basic maintenance plan! Not to mention there are 3rd party vendors who lurk the site and will give you discount on parts if you talk with them (specifically Steeda) quote:Wow people with Focuses consider the OEM speed3 mount an upgrade? That thing is a sloppy mess and is usually the first part to be removed from a MS3. I yanked mine at like 5k miles. Maybe it's worse with the increased power output, but I still find it hard to believe anyone wants those. The Focus mount is even WORSE. Guys have also swapped the stock RMM with a Streetunit mount too. However a lot of the guys do not like the added vibration which the OEM MS3 mount avoids. I still suggest signing up if not, definitely lurk. It is easy to spot the boy racers and even easier to avoid them.

djhaloeight posted:Well, I traded in my '02 300M Special last week. Had it 7 years, put just about 100k on it. (got it with 57k) Good car, but was starting to nickle and dime me to death. (radiator, trans mount, starter, a/c was on its way out, etc) Both of those cars are CLEAN.

Bob A Feet posted:235's I think. It's a good thing that after I washed it yesterday I took pics, because its POURING loving RAIN NOW. I have a 2012 focus and you can adjust the hood gap.  Twist those "knobs" that I circled and keep shutting the hood to see if you are making corrections. I would try to adjust the one on the driver's side first obviously.

Darko posted:As I posted in the "bad pic" thread, I actually got this car a month ago, but someone stole her the next day while I was out to eat, took the wheels, and caused 20k in damage from pushing it down the street, stuffing it, and not even putting it on blocks when taking the wheels. 20k in damage and they didn't total the car? wow. Looks great though.

chrisgt posted:I just bought one of these (i think). Wife needed a new car so I went to the car store and came home with a red CX-30. I think it's kind of abysmal and the transmission makes me swear, but she loves the poo poo out of it and that's all that matters. Why don't you like the CX-30? It has received a lot of great reviews and some reviewers even like the turbo version more than the equivalent CX5 turbo version. I might be looking to replace my 2014 Grand Touring CX5 in a few years and was considering "downsizing" to the CX30.
