The forthcoming <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/focus+st">2012 Focus ST</a> is indeed something for hot hatch enthusiasts to look forward to, but buyers shopping the naturally aspirated volume models will be able to spec a bit of sport on their Focuses, as well. When the new <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/focus">Focus</a> goes on sale in early 2011, <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> will offer sport packages for both the mid-grade SE and top-end Titanium models, adding things like a more aggressively tuned suspension, larger wheels, better brakes and a host of interior upgrades.<br />
<br />
Available on both the sedan and hatchback, the SE Sport Package adds four-wheel disc brakes, sport suspension, 16-inch aluminum wheels (with an available set of 17s), piano black grille, sport seats, metallic interior trim accents, leather-wrapped steering wheel and a five-speed manual transmission. On top of that, the Focus SE Sport gets a rear spoiler and is available in the automaker's Yellow Blaze Metallic paint color.<br />
<br />
For the top-shelf Titanium model, which already comes standard with Ford's sport-tuned spension, the Titanium Handling Package adds optimized suspension components for an even better driving feel and special 18-inch alloys wrapped in summer performance tires.<br />
<br />
Pricing for these option packages is not available as of this writing, but Ford says it will be launching its online configurator for the 2012 Focus near the end of October. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/25/ford-offering-sport-packages-for-2012-focus-se-titanium/">Follow the jump</a> for the official details in the automaker's press blast.<br />
