2012 Ford Focus gets wrapped up in tattoos

Ford really wants owners to personalize their vehicles, and over the past year the automaker has launched custom graphics for the Mustang, Taurus, Fiesta and F-150. Now another car is getting in on the vinyl wrap fun – the 2012 Ford Focus. Through the website FordCustomGraphics.com, 2012 Focus owners can apply vinyl ‘tattoos’ to their cars.

The Blue Oval team did some research and found that nearly four in 10 Millennials have at least one tattoo. It’s not a stretch, then, to figure they might want to throw one on their car. People already put graphics on cell phones, laptops and whatever else is around, so allowing an outlet for automotive creativity makes sense. These automotive tattoos won’t be in short supply, either – Ford is offering over 200 different designs for the all-new Focus.

The graphics range in price from $120 up to $470 and they’ve all been produced by Original Wraps. Of course, each wrap is easily removable should you get bored with the look – something that can’t be said for an actual tattoo. Follow the jump for Ford’s official press release.

In search of the design of the Smart Roadster model, which we showed in our previous post, we came across these drawings of the next generation of Mercedes-Benz SLK used for brand. Is this an official video of the 2012 SLK already leaked online (you can use it after the jump, if you forget to see), these pictures give just a little more and unobstructed view of a roadster with a retractable hardtop.

With a silhouette similar (though edged detail) on the previous model, the new SLK comes on the market to offer sometime next year, buyers show a revised engine lineup of four-cylinder and V6 gasoline engine, and if the rumors to be true, a diesel Option to. The area with a high-performance AMG model will be completed, will be equipped with twin-turbo V6 or a larger V8 engine.

Watch for the SLK, on either the Detroit Motor Show in mid-January or the Geneva Motor Show in March.
