Default Focus ZX5

Hello all. I have no real interest in cars and no nothing about them, but have been looking around as I am buying my first one.

Nothing has really interested me except for this car (Focus ZX5) which I saw on an old Alias episode. It was a cheesy product placement but that worked out good for me otherwise I wouldn't have any idea what car it was.

It's a really cool car and I'd like to get one but after looking at the Ford website they aren't listed, so I guess it's an overseas model? :(

Is there anyway to get one? Are there any aussie Focus' which are very similar to this one?

Correct!

ZX3 = 3 door Zetec
ZX5 = 5 door Zetec
SVT = ST170

Thanks everyone. Cool, so I guess I will be able to get one.

I don't think I'll be buying new, probably second hand. The episode I saw was from 2003 I believe (actually may have even been 2002?) and that model looked great. Is there much difference between the 2002-2005 models?

2002 to 2005 models are all the same, they were never updated or changed officially.
