Hi, Guest
The hard start issue was supposed to be cleaned up with a new ECU tune - i.e. none of the 2007s were supposed to be affected. But some are. Have a chat with your service advisor. They'll double hop-to if you haven't filled out the new car survey yet from Ford.
The suspension changes have already been mentioned, but they're significant. Buyer beware when buying parts from the uneducated / those who don't give a s*** about the Focus.
You have a lot of options with the 2007 Focus, and the major notables include Marcy Motorsports (back from the dead it seems), Cosworth, Focus Sport, Roush and Ford Racing. There are others (F2, K+N, etc) that offer limited upgrades. Make sure you do your homework first. Eibach and Ford Racing make suspension kits. Others (like Steeda) just resell some kits and brand them as their own.
Personally, by April, I'll have the Cosworth CAI (cold air intake) and the MBRP 2.25" stainless steel cat-back exhaust (for the second time LOL).
Good luck with the new ride. If memory serves, you'll want a rear anti-sway for that suspension to compliment the front one. It'll tighten it up some more, flatten out the body roll a bit and render the car a little more neutral at the limit.
