Hey guys, I'm in Japan right now, but getting stationed in Tucson, AZ in April. So my wife and I decided to buy a new car. Today we settled on and bought a 2012 Focus Hatch SE. It came with the 201A package, Sports Package and Interior Protection Package. Sonic Blue. Purchased through Exchange New Car Sales, because it was short notice we picked from stock vehicles and got very lucky with what was available. We got exactly what we wanted. ...I would've preferred the manual, but my wife is more skilled in an auto
I found this forum by searching for transmission issues with the Focus. Thankfully it sounds like the transmission just needs some breaking in. After skimming other threads, I thought this forum was well maintained with mature acting members, so I thought I'd join for when I have questions or comments. I look forward to the community here!
Now I can't wait to get to AZ and start breaking in my new car!!
PS- Username is what I decided to name the car lol
Hello all... My name is Joe... i live NE of houston, between Baytown and Humble. I picked up an 01 focus SE 4dr Sedan 5spd with Zetec motor and 70k miles last month. I actually traded a Samsung front load washer and dryer for the car, lol.... (Roughly paid $800 for car and put $400 into it to get it back on the road)
Car is white exterior and black interior.
Bone stock for time being, til I start modding it like i do all my vehicle's, lol.
I did put some new 15" rims on it yesterday, as the stock 15" rims had some curb rash.
Ive been around cars all my life, but this is my first focus. I also have a 98 t-top manual firebird. and several other vehicle's.
I will get some pics of the Focus this next week, hopefully when its not raining and nice and sunny out.
