Hi! - jonesa3 - 05-13-2008
Hey everyone!
I'm a new focus owner ('08 SES sport) and hopefully this is the right board for me, despite the fact that most people here seem to have 2007 or earlier models. either way, I'm excited to be a new focus driver, and to read about the focus generally on this board. Hopefully I can get started on some mods at some point, but I'm gonna enjoy the car a little as-is first :)
Cheers!
Andy

I'm sure you can find lots of information that you can use here, as the 08's get more plentiful I'm sure there will be lots you can do with it ;)

Hi! - Focus man. Focus. - 05-13-2008
Welcome. Your right, a lot of (everyone except 1) has an 07 or earlier but as time goes on you will find tons of info here. Also there are meets and other events that you can take part in. Massiv Mondays, Camping trips etc. Welcome aboard and feel free to ask a lot of questions.

Well parts are coming out for the 08 now. So far they have:
SRI's
Exhaust (carry over from previous)
Swaybars (carry over from previous, just found out from Focusport)
lowering kits from Eibach
Tunes from Steeda and development from others.
I think the best looking mod is the Steeda body kit (very nice kit)
I hope that helps.

Wow. I didn't expect such a warm welcome! Thanks everyone. I'm really looking forward to working on my car. I'll definitely come out for a bbq or other event at some point.
Thanks!
