Yes, it is called Satin White. If you go to the Ford website and click on the Focus photo, you can build and price your own car.

we have one on as a demo, it looks great with window tint and a bit of brake dust on the alloys to make them look a bit darker.

Let me rephrase then. I have an LS Focus in LX spec. The difference between an LX and the Zetec is a bodykit, lowered springs, 17" alloys and minor interior trim. All of which I'm not really concerned with. So I have the LX.

I also couldn't see the value the Zetec has over the LX.

Exactly! And in 3 years when the lease runs out and I own it outright, I will probably mod it and it will be my Sleeper car. Yes it might look like a plain everyday car but It will lay some rubber down :

the white looks good, would go well with some nice gunmetal or shadow chrome rims, even black or gunmetal with a polished lip would go nice

That's what I thought when I purchased mine. All the zetec mods are mods I can do later to my own taste if I want them.

I find silver fades into the fog and rain alittle too much.
