This week I'm ordering a 2012 Focus for my wife. Should make for a nice DD and grocery getter.

Specs:

5-door Hatchback
Titanium Trim
Red Candy Metallic Paint
Titanium Handling Package
Navigation

The Red Candy paint looks great with the 18" Titanium Handling Wheels.

According to the 2012 Focus site, even the top trim comes with standard halogen headlamps. What's up with that? I want HIDs if I'm buying the Titanium trim package! Is this an error on the site?

HIDs and LEDs "eyebrows" aren't available, at least not this year, in the US. Just a guess but when the ST and the -MAXes hit they will probably be available. I've heard rumblings that getting those lights OK'ed by gov is a pain, and it would have cost to much money to rush them out.

Nice article . . .

Ford said it wanted this car to be fun to drive, and it delivered just that and a lot more.

Many experts may have thought that Ford was going to deliver the best American-made compact car, which the Focus certainly is, but it's also the best compact sold in America — something a lot of people weren't considering.

They should.
