Looks like it might have that slick Volvo folding hard top instead of a rag top.

lol that one pic with the chick in the car driving it in the photo choped pic there looks like her head is being crushed under the roof...lol....


But yeah I was already saying I was looking foward to the 2007 Focus Cabrio, I liked the Idea back then, and the concept, and it would be nice if Ford made it available for 2008 for us. You have to remember though Ford in Europe has not had a Cabrio Car since they took the European Escort off the market there in 1998 other then the Ka, and the other option to them for a Cabrio was the imported Mustangs from the USA.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

I like that look. Boy if they bring it over here I'd seriously considering buying that. Hardtop covertibles have always appealed to me vs. the softtops for many reasons and that car with the top down to me is the definition of slick.

Stick a decent motor in it out of the box (At least the 2.3L) and I'd say you have a winner there B)

Not that the 2.0 isn't a decent motor... just considering the sportiness fo that car, a 2.3 should be standard. :)

Not dissing the 2.0L by any means (Hey it powers my red beastie) but I'm figuring that car would be at least a few hundred pounds heavier and lemme tell ya, dump enough weight in my car (5 people & their crap) and the 2.0L finds it a tough slog.

Put on the A/C too? God... passing times with a sundial :D
