Some folks (yourself included) have been talking about the grill and front fascia of the ST.. So I guess my point is that if ya live in the States, we can't be too sure what you're getting.
Also, I hope the "Available Recaro™ leather-trimmed sport seats" make it to production. It wasn't until the Boss that we saw them in an s197 Mustang.

Agreed. the headlights and the shape of the license plate holder are the only visible external changes from Euro to US on the volume Focus models.

it still bugs me that Ford killed off the Focus wagon back in '05 (we were going to order one, went with a Freestyle instead since the Focus wagon was discontinued ) and that they are making a new Focus wagon, just not for the US. If they would bring over the new Focus wagon (and equip it with a manual trans) it would almost surely be our next family car. I'll take a look at the C-Max, but would prefer a traditional wagon, and the C-Max isn't going to be available with a manual trans in the US (but it will overseas).

Kinda' interesting that they chose to put it right up in front with the other versions at the NAIAS though if they know they wont be offering it. I wonder if this was a tease intended to indicate that they are at least thinking about it.
reminds me of the Saab 93 wagons
