Default All new Focus Sedan pics
Hey all, unfortunatley I dont have any, and this time around I think Ford have done just as good styling job on the sedan as the hatch.

It has alot in common with the mondeo from the front, and rear to a certain extent; and a car Id kill for right now is a Mondeo ST220, but thats not goign to happen any time soon.

So what would be awesome would be a zetec sedan, but they dont exist. So does any have any pics of a new focus sedan, preferable with a subtle body kit and some nice wheels?

It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hey zetec, know whats funny, I shoudl be in that pic..lol

I was working on the ford stand with that chick..we had the same shift. So obviously Ive seen this cars up close; but its a good start!

I think a sedan has potential, if only the slacks made a Zetec sedan damn it!

You'd have to move to the UK for that one most probably.

A quick search of www.ffoc.co.uk or www.focusfanatics.com will reveal some gold... all my pics are at work, but have none of the sedan yet, just hatches... proof the new model looks sensational on 18's... Bodykits in first two are MS Designs from Germany.

Man that new shape is awesome!!

Specially compared to the old sedan!

Ford shouldnt have too much trouble selling a few of those if they market them right.

I agree about the sedan but putting the fact i own one aside, I like the current/old shape better for the Hatch.

Yes it is the old shape.
Forgive me if wrong, but are those Belgian Plates? They look very much like them. It's def a Euro photo, but not UK... I'd hazard a guess for Belgium, the Flemish (North) half.

Them's the ones I have at work ;) The bottom one is as above, it's the MS Design kit, very nice. What I wouldn't give for a black 3dr on those massive gold rims, look like 20's!!!! Yummy

Damn they are some nice pics, but still no sedans...lol

The hatch is very nice, I just wanted to see what a pimped out sedan looked like. they have a bit of IS200 IMO.

Received the new Focus brochure in the mail today- much improved styling IMHO (particularly the interior). I like it.

Hopefully they haven't stuffed up the handling on the new one. Took an old Zetec auto for a quick drive a while back and it reminded me of my old Peugeot 306 S16- very impressive.
