Meant the Zetec S rear valance, if the rear isnt able to be split up, and I can't get the insert separately would if work as a once piece valance? The ST valance is already one piece.

Like if the black plastic piece that goes on this^ piece was moulded in? I would be fine with that. Centre exhaust not duals. Makes more sense to make a single piece than to have to make two pieces

Yes that piece




This piece will stay Duals, but I will have the ST valance made also for the sedan, center exit.

I think it is more likely we'll see a sedan with the Fiesta ST's 1.6 engine as an option with sportier handling and refreshed looks, but I wouldn't bet on it being called an ST.

The SES sedans (like mine) sold like hotcakes with the refreshed bumpers, "sport" suspension and 17" wheels.

Interesting concept, never thought of that

It follows more in line with the 05-07 ST sedan. Had a slightly more powerful engine and different handling than a basic Focus, but didn't take attention away from the SVT.

In the same sense, an SES Coupe or Sedan for 08-11 had Sportier looks, sport tuned suspension, sport tuned exhaust (some models) SVT style wheels, and of course the black headlight/taillights/grille combo.

It would make much more sense especially since its very likely that 2014 will see the introduction of the Fusion's 1.6 EcoBoost into the Focus spec sheet as an option from the base 2.0l

The Fiesta ST 1.6 eco is supposed to be 200 HP... which with a tune and upgraded parts we should be over 200 with our 2.0.... so I don't really see the advantage? lol But for right now, there are not much options for the Sedan, so I am wanting to bring it out for all of us

The Hatchback IS a sedan (or saloon as the UKers call them) so the poll is quite confusing to a simpleton like me.
