Hi ho everyone!
Just picked up a new (new to me) white 2012 Focus SE hatchback, 5MT on Monday. It has just over 40k on it.
It has the usual fare, along with heated seats & side mirrors, fog lights, tinted windows. The thing drives and handles wonderfully. It is a joy to drive.

Post up some pics when you can - and give us your driving impressions too - I don't know anyone who has yet driven the 5MT car

Welcome to the site.
I can agree about the odd menu items for radio, if the new focus is anything like the escape. I have a rental 2014 escape right now, I think I had an aneurysm trying to get my bluetooth streaming audio selected.
