The new 2008 Ford Focus ZX3 is sporty and one of the hottest
cars in Ford history. Ours is the biggest and best site online
for Focus info and questions about all of the various Focus
wheels you can get with your car. The improved Focus is the
most popular car in Ford's lineup, and, with innovative audio
options and the high-tech AdvanceTrac system for slick roads,
that popularity makes sense. New for this year, the Focus
now comes in seven models:
- Focus ZX3
- ZX5
- Focus LX
- SE Sedan
- ZTS Sedan
- SE Wagon,
- Focus ZTW Wagon
Standard on the 2008 Ford Focus ZX3 is the basic engine -
a 16-valve, 2-liter DOHC Z-Tec I-4 that delivers 130 horsepower
at 5,300 rpm and 135 pounds per foot of torque at 4,500 rpm.
Also available is a 16-valve, split-port intake, 2.0- liter
SOHC I-4 that delivers 110 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 125
pounds per foot of torque at 3,750 rpm. These engines always
come with a standard five-speed manual transmission, front
wheel drive, and MacPherson struts. Of course they all come
with drop-dead Focus wheels that will have everyone green
with envy.
There's more to this car than just Focus performance - the
car is chock- full of amenities, as well. Most models come
standard with exterior luggage racks, aerodynamic halogen
headlamps, black body side protection moldings, and 14-, 15-,
or 16-inch multi-spoke aluminum Focus wheels. Inside, the
2008 Ford Focus boasts great features, too:
- 60/40 split-fold rear seatbacks
- Cloth lowback seats
- Rear seat heat ducts
- Driver's foot rest
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel
- 12-volt powerpoint and sophisticated sound systems that
are sure to please even the finest ears.
If these features aren't enough to convince you people will
stop and stare, you should inquire about some of the available
Focus body kits we mentioned earlier in our review. These
kits enable you to build spoilers or chassis overhangs in
a matter of hours. They're worth the investment!
Finally, we end our Focus review with a word on safety.
Some of the newest Focus safety measures include:
- LATCH child-restraint system
- Second Generation driver and passenger airbags
- Childproof side door locks
- SecuriLock passive anti-theft system
- Non-skid Focus wheels
