'19 Focus Camo Spied


Recommended Posts

Wow that is actually pretty nice...the greenhouse has an Accord vibe to it

 

 


What remains to be seen is if we'll get a model equipped like the one pictured (at the top end of the hierarchy) or if we'll be stuck with halogen headlights and incandescent taillights and whatnot to cheapen it out.

 

Higher end models will be sourced from the EU...though outside of the ST and RS versions, I wonder how much demand there is for Ti models. I don't think Ford is backing away from trying to sell better equipped cars in the US. They just want lower cost models built in China to maximize profits.

Despite everything we are still building a decent amount of Ti models. It hasnt changed all that much from what I can tell. Definitely more STs though, thats for sure.

I forgot about that. Well maybe we'll get the model pictured after all.

Ford forces dealers to take a certain number of SEL's and Titanium's as part of their commodity and production mix. And they're pushing ST's like crazy!

Have you seen the leader of the bunch, the new civic. At least around here, I can't turn a corner without seeing those garish tail lights stareing me in the face. And don't even mention the sport model, makes the WRX look retrained.

 

And this year it will be or come close to outselling the Camry as the best selling sedan in America. If you want something more traditional in the segment, I'd look at the 2019 Jetta.
