Welcome Ford Focus fans!! We purchased our Focus in April 2008 as our "economy" car for daily driving. Well, after finding Focus Fanatics on-line that poor little car never knew what hit it!!
I hadn't worked on a car since my 1967 Pontiac LeMans so opening the hood on this little guy presented me with a lot of changes in automotive technology. Hell I had to look on the Internet to figure out if I was changing the spark plugs correctly, I'd never even seen coil-on-plugs before!
I've learned a lot since then and I throughly enjoy working on my car. What's even more fun is having "work parties" at our house for other Focus enthusiasts. Just mention you're going to work on your car on-line and the next thing you know there's all kinds of Foci on the street (we love it).

Finding parts for my 08' was fun at first but the aftermarket is catching up. Here are some of the companies I know of where you will find the Ford Focus is not just an afterthought.
