Did anyone see the new commercial on the 2012 Foci? It talks about a new feature "active grill shutters" that closes air dams in the front grill automatically at certain speeds to make it more aerodynamic.

Either they ripped off GM (The Cruze has this feature on their fuel economy package as well) or vice versa, but either way it's an interesting bit.
Dunno what happens if it "sticks" in the wrong position though  NefCanuck

I use to disable my pop-up headlights in the open position for winter.

Old enough to know me limit, yet young enough to exceed it.

And, by watching the video, it looks as if the wipers/washers are on the right side of the steering wheel.
Anyone else notice that there are five wheel studs? 2009...

Was going to say, Euro Foci have had that for a few years. But yes, it's on the new SFE 2012 NA Focus now.
Was at the movies last night when a commercial for the '12 Focus came on... I was like "aaaawwwwww yeeeeaaaaahhhh!", G/F was all *poker face*. Some folks just don't get it.
