Ford Canada Announces 2009 Focus Specs - Canadian ST - 06-04-2008
I saw the pics of the 09 coupe and the rims look sharp and the grill looks cool. The mid wing looks like sh#t though. I wish they would come out with the 2.3 "ST" model, oh well. Oh ya the coupe has a sport ehaust thats good for another 3 hp.

I see "Sangria Red" is back as a colour choice... wonder if it's the same shade as was available up to '05 before it was discontinued in favour of the darker "Toreador Red"?

Ford has the option to really ramp up the coupe/sedan and yet again delivers another grocery cart. Well done boys. :rolleyes:

is the focus a big enough seller as is? and it is selling more now than when it was pretending to be a euro style small hot hatch?

I don't understand either, the Focus sales are up 88% compared to the same time last year. They should be trying to get some tuners intrested.

maybe that's just it... they don't NEED to get tuners interested because the rest of the world likes the direction they took with the '08 car?
also it seems the tuner world moved on from all motor FWD cars and into turbocharged AWD/RWD cars..

no they still come in blue, it's a dark blue they come in, I like the fact they are adding the SOS feature finally, as its been a standard item for more then a decade in europe.
if anything all I see is a few renaming of packaged features and colours, and the delete of one shade of silver, and that baby puke green colour.
