New guy - Chuck P - 11-13-2012

Hey all,

I live in Mississauga and I picked up a 2013 5 door 5 speed SE with the plus package, black package and winter package. I've put about 1000km's on the car and I'm loving it. It doesn't have the same pep as my Mustang but overall it is a better car.

I plan on just surfing around and reading up on the mk3 Focus.

Every thread needs a couple pics:

Still at the dealership

Black package rear spoiler, which is my favorite part of the car lol

My summer car is a 2012 Mustang V6 with the Performance Package, which I am going to transition into a track car.

Welcome to the site - a couple of real nice additions to the FC.net garage.


RE: New guy - ZX3_2NV - 11-14-2012

Welcome, I really like the black factory wheels the new focus comes with.


RE: New guy - Chuck P - 11-14-2012

Thanks for the welcome all.

I am really enjoying the car, the 3.7L V6 sounds great and on the highway actually gets 30mpg. I auto-x'd a bit this summer and my car ran as fast as my friends E46 M3. If anyone is thinking about getting a V6 Mustang add the performance package (wide summer tires, GT suspension, 3.31 rear end) and get the 6 speed manual. You wont find a better deal <$30k new.

Yeah the spoiler is part of the SE Black Package. I was at my local dealer today and they had a white SE with the black package, I think it looks even better with the white.

Pink wing on a black car should look interesting lol.
