    After fiddling with the Titanium+, I headed over to Ford Global City to check out the hatchbacks in person. They had a black Trend HB, a white Trend HB, a lunar sky Titanium+, and a white Sport+. I find that both black and white suit the Focus well. The black one looks sleeker, but it does take away the contrast that the black grille inserts give.



    As I checked out the rear of the Focus Sport+, it was evident how much more handsome the hatchback was compared to the sedan, at least to me. The ST spoiler goes well with the larger 17" rims and the more defined side skirt. The abundance of curves in the hatch's design hide the rather chubby rear - definitely more svelte than the Mk. II Focus.



    More than the what the brochure says and what the pictures show, the Focus is really something special. The doors are very Teutonic in feel (though the thud when you close it isn't as classy). The seats hug you very well, but aren't rock-hard (unlike the FD Civic). The leather on the steering wheel is just lovely to touch, probably a sign of all the fun you'll have fiddling with that tiller on twisty mountain roads.

    Long story short, I've fallen for the Focus. No other compact is this good on a standstill. Hopefully it drives better than the others as well, but it looks like I won't be able to find out unless I get one. Units are scarce and the only test drive you'll get is a controlled environment to show off its electrical nannies. Heck, not even LTO comes free with this car.

    Now where's 1.2M when you need it...

    Same bolt pattern.

    PS: In Europe one of the optional wheels for the low-end Focus appears to be the same 16 inch Y-spoke alloys used on the facelifted Mk2.5 Focus Sport and TDCi models.


    Just checked the European brochure, some larger optional wheels for the new Focus in Europe also appear to be carried over from the Mk2.5 Focus' option/accessories list.
