Really? So you have seen it with your own eyes?


Have you guys check on thailands ford's website? Ford Thailand website
They have ford focus spare parts pricing and comparison with two other brands. Quite convenience if ford
themselves could put on standard pricing for each parts, too bad theres none on our local website.

Anyone actually test drive both titanium and sport? I notice on specification list on sport got "sport-tuned suspension".

Is this even true or they just made it to balance out for the missing BLIS on sport model. So is there anyone ever felt this sport-tuned suspension?

Since 15 Sept 2012. 35 days......

Thinking of installing ambient light inside the car. Will this void the warranty?
Any FoFo out there who already got the car, is the warranty book mentioned this?

Thanks
*
there is already ambient light in the new ford focus, red colour.
one of the user already shared the pictures check page 77.

what colour are you getting for your car?

Silver, FoFoTi without +,
I tot no ambient light for Titanium without +???

Sorry i thought youre getting the + version.
I think any modification that requires cutting wire or changing parts will void warranty.
So unless your car already got the slots and sockets for all the stuff youre risking your warranty.
Better confirm with your SA tho

Ghia means sedan for the old focus mk2 model isnt it? Even now sometime you could see SA promoting new focus sedan as "ghia titanium". The one youre dealing with maybe one of them.

Thats why i said youre dealing with one of them, they soo used to registering the old focus theyre bringing the name to the new model as well. Or youre actually bought the Sport hatchback?

QUOTE(terdit @ Nov 2 2012, 06:22 PM)
To those New Gen Focus owner, do u all having problem on the keyless door lock?
still not too sure how to lock/unlock the door with the button at the handle, sometimes able to lock/unlock, but somethings is not working.
any special instruction needed?  sweat.gif
*
I think youre not supposed to touch that button. Just have your remote in pocket and pull the door, it should unlock itself. But remember to arm the lock yourself when you leave your car, it wont lock automatically.

While the idea of focus owner group is interesting, new focus owner is still scarce and most owner seem like frequently busy with life sweat.gif . The group will be a lonely group cry.gif
And im not even an owner, just a fan, an enthusiast, a wannabe icon_rolleyes.gif

Mr Terdit, can you start the facebook group. You are among the most senior in terms of having 2012 FoFo. brows.gif

According to my SA, I'll get mine within nxt week. FoFoTi+ silver.


Added on November 9, 2012, 7:58 pm

I got RM600 voucher. And use it for Raytech UL70 front and rear windscreen and centurion 6 mil for side. Top up another 2k for that.

Wow, havent got the car but already allocated that much money for the car drool.gif , good luck bro thumbup.gif , please put on pictures later.
Did you choose colour tint? Green? Black?

QUOTE(kellch @ Nov 9 2012, 09:45 PM)
yes, the jack and toolkit are under the spare tyre. my SA ter-cut his finger while securing the spare tyre. i noticed that the spare tyre given is only Maxxis brand instead of Michelin.
*
Thanks, that'll put on much assurance to others. Yep, i noticed the maxxis spare tyre; cut cost method, common for malaysian bound car. doh.gif


Btw, i only notice all new focus owner here all opt for silver isn't it? Red is too striking? brows.gif

For the + variant, does the sunroof glass comes with treated glass?
I mean slightly dark or uv protected or heat resistant?

Or you had to tint the sunroof glass topping up the tint voucher,
or do people normally even tint sunroof glass? tongue.gif

just drop by SDAC PJ after lunch..

disct 3k only valid for sedan. hatchback still 1k.. (but depends on SA)
they claimed sedan a bit "susah" to closed a deal.. ????

and will be slighly price increase early next year..

and SAW;
1 FoFo Sport + colour LUNAR SKY--- with reg no
1 FoFo Sport  colour light orange - without reg no

possible FORD will introduce new colour.no?
*
If it really lunar sky then it is new colour but unheard of to me even in us and eu region, maybe you mean MIDNIGHT SKY?

Did you see the light orange one from the front? It might be test drive unit for Ford Focus ST. Tangerine Orange. Exclusive colour for ST. In us/eu for normal focus got Mustard Yellow, but no orange. But pictures from media test drive in Krabi, Thai did show a colour that not listed in other region a bit yellowish green, might be that one too.

I wonder what the discount reflect to; is sedan is selling more well then hatchback so trying to milk more sale with better discount?

Any FoFo owner  did survey for 18" rim for your FoFo. Mind to share.

I've a feeling to upgrade the rim to 18". Think to get a 2nd hand volvo s80 rim. Seems the offset can be matched with FoFo 18" offset.

You can refer to Ford Australia website for details 18" rim spec for FoFo
*
In us and eu 18" rim is a part of titanium handling package. I would go for that if it was offered here, the 5 spoke rim look awesome
