suv_guy_19 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 How are they fitting it on the tiny revamped Focus? From what I've heard, it will only have two as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 (edited) I think Horbury's guys are tweaking the big chrome grin. The headlights on both the Edge and Five Hundred are notched and upswept and wrap around into the sidemarker/parking light/turn signal assembly, and the Focus has wider gaps between the bars, and I do believe it has three chrome bars It's a design statement that needs to evolve continually. Checked on the Focus. It doesn't have 3 bars. Edited December 1, 2006 by RichardJensen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoss96racing Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Checked on the Focus. It doesn't have 3 bars. that will be good... the worst thing they could do would be to just up size and down size the fusion grill ... I always hated in 92 when the escort, taurus and crown vic all had the no grill face... just looked like taurus small-medium-large and the only one that looked ok was the taurus... which got old quick...

RichardJensen Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 I sure hope that's an occasional use seat. It looks TERRIBLE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bec5150 Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 It's much like the third row seat in the Taurus station wagon, just a kiddie seat. Whether it's useful or not is really left up to opinion, but that's what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's useful or not is really left up to opinion, but that's what it is. It looks like they upholstered it with towels! And what's with the bunny-ear head restraints? It's a kiddie seat alright. No adult would want to sit there. Padding looks like it's about an inch thick too. Man, you'd just about need a stadium seat in order to handle any amount of time stuck back there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05fordgt Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 That seat is a total joke! They added it to appease people and this is what you get in a vehicle that really isn't set up size wise for a true 3rd row seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are doing what Toyota's has done in regards to the Highlander and rav4. Adding third rows that mean nothing but people tend to eat them up.

Roadrunner Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Just saw the interior -- looks very classy. Better than anything Ford has now, I'm bold enough to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) What color green is this? I don't think it's Titanium Green. I've seen a green very similar to this on both a Mustang and a Focus, and it looks really sharp on them, but on this... not so much. What's the paint color?

This color isn't anywhere near the Legend Lime of the Mustangs. It is however, the same color on the 2007 Focus. Its okay in my eye. Definitely different.

Michael Reynolds Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 It looks like Frogger. Not only do you get to sit in these comfortable seats, here listen to my sub. What a total waste that is, at least in the RAV4 you get somewhat of a useable seat. That thing makes a park bench look comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swenson88 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I don't see the benefit of "keyless" ignition. I still have to have the "key" (or keyfob, whatever it is) with me, so how does this make my life any easier? I really have never had any trouble inserting a key into the cylinder and turning it to start the car, what's the inconvenience there? These systems seem like technology for the sake of technology, I don't think they're any sort of improvement over a traditional ignition.

He had the Keyless option. Told me it was okay, but annoying, as if he wanted to walk back to the car to check if it was locked, the transmitter would always unlock the car. Got annoying, and wished ne didn't get it on the car. Give me my buttons on the remote any day. At least I know the car is secure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bec5150 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 It's like any option, isn't it? Until you live with it, you really can't comment. I used to think that the keyless entry was overkill and stupid. Then I got a vehicle with it on and now I can't imagine having a family car without it.
