I experience the same on my SEL hatch. Quickly collects dirty water/moisture in light rain or fog. But they give you a rear wiper and I use it regularly on the interval setting and it suits me just fine. No exhaust crud here either.....HTH

Wife's SFE doesn't seem to suffer any with the LRR tires. They grip well on very wet roads at all speeds. Obviously we gotta wait for any winter feeddback..... HTH

Gonna get me and the wife a set of them before fall. Was hoping someone would have them out soon. Thanks for the heads up!!

The wife and I ordered an SE sedan for her early spring and took delivery May 25th. So far we both really like it. She hated the look of the hatch and wouldn't even consider it..... I really had no preference but the hatch kinda kept growing on me as time went by. We decided for the heck of it to take my '08 Fusion in to get a trade-in appraisal last Wednesday and the dealer made us an offer I couldn't refuse on it...... They only had (1) 2012 Focus in stock, a Kona Blue SEL hatch. Looked it over real good and it had all the options I wanted but one, the winter package. The sales guy threw a couple freebies at me and I told him to get the paper work started. So now we have a Sterling Grey SE sedan and a Kona Blue SEL hatch sitting side by side in the driveway....hehe. I am happy with my new hatch!!

VERY NICE......That's looking sharp!! The wife and I are going to pick up her Sterling Grey SE SFE in about an hour. Can't believe it finally got here. Thanks for posting pics!

Weekly bump, thanks for the great effort guys!!!!!! Dealer: Suppes Ford F44556 Focus (C346N) VIN Number: 1FAHP3F25CL134651 Order date: 3-16-11 Build date: 4-5-11 QA release for shipping: 4-8-11

Any chance on getting an update on VIN # 1FAHP3F25CL134651 ?? Built 4-5-11, QA release for shipping 4-8-11. Thanks for any help!!

Going on 6 weeks for ours........

Once you get put on the schedule with a build date and that day arrives, it'll be <72 hrs till you're car is complete barring any problems. At least that is what it looks like from members here and on another Focus forum. Getting it shipped is where it's anybody's guess. Some guys have gotten their cars shipped almost immediately, and others like myself have been waiting 'awhile' without an idea when to expect it. My car was built on 4-5-11, released to ship on 4-8-11, and has been taken back by QA twice and re-released. Last update was re-re-released on 4-29-11 for shipment and still sitting in the lot waiting.... Mind you my case is the exception not the rule. First things first you need to get assigned a VIN and check for your Window sticker. That's when the ball starts rolling for ya. HTH.....

Congrats, post some pics if/when ya can!!

I hope they eventually bring it back if it is in fact discontinued..... I may order another Focus later this fall and I'm kinda leaning towards a Kona blue or Oxford white SEL.

Kindly requesting tracking info... Here is what I know. Dealer: Suppes Ford F44556 Focus (C346N) VIN Number: 1FAHP3F25CL134651 Order date: 3-16-11 Build date: 4-5-11 QA release for shipping: 4-8-11 ETA: 4-17-11 (first official date they gave me, didn't show up) According to dealer was re-released for shipment on 4-29-11 and still sitting on the plant lot. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time! Brian

Looks like we need some one that has that package to chime in and verify.... You think Ford would have put something like that in the package details when building/choosing options. The Mustang has them as an option.....

The remote start is definitely dealer installed. He must mean the sill plates. Door edge bump guards aren't available that I know of......

Congrats on the new ride, looks great!! Hopefully we'll have ours soon also if they ever decide to ship it.....
