2007 Ford Focus ZX5 SE 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
The Focus that I bought a year and half ago was an exceptional car. I have driven it as a delivery car and have had almost no problems with it so far. Its versatility is good and for a small car it has plently of room. I would recomend this car to anyone that is looking for fuel efficency and a nice rideing small car. The only thing I would have done differently was bought he 2.3L engine for better pick up.
Favorite Features
Comfort, radio, versitlity, fun ride, five speed, the heat and a/c will blow you out of the car with small cool and heat of times.
Suggested Improvements
I more powerful engine but this was my fault becuase the option was there and I didn't take the time to wait for it. Overall the vechile is everthing I needed and more.

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 SES 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
This small car has great get up and a very nice drive. It is comfortable on long trips.
Favorite Features
MP3/CD player and the Bose speakers
Suggested Improvements
The only performance issue I have is that the Pirelli tires whine over 55 mph. I can't have my windows down while driving.

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 S 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
I have 50k on this car already-going back and forth from WA to TN and I could not ask for a better car. We did a trip across the country with 4 adults and we were all comfortable. We also spent only $380 in gas (Aug 08). I have the mileage up to 40 mpg. The only thing I have had to replace (besides maintence items) was a blinker bulb for $1.41. I have owned a lot of cars including a Volvo and a Lexus and several Hondas and this has been by far the best car I have owned. I will run this car until it has a million miles on it and go trade it in for another Focus. Get a 5 speed--it makes them way more fun to drive

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 SE 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
No problems with vehicle. Good MPG in city/highway driving, very good MPG highway driving. Comfortable, and decent acceleration. ABS and 15" alloy wheels a must.
Favorite Features
Steering, control, acceleration
Suggested Improvements
Tilt & cruise on SE models, also ABS should be standard on all models.

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 ST 4dr Sedan (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
Review
I have the 2007 ST - a special performance model. The 2.3 L engine delivers good power (151 HP) and great torque (154 lbs) at a low rpm. It is more than adequate, better still can be easily improved. The car's upgraded suspension handles great at high speeds and is still comfortable to drive. It's very stable and responsive (the euro spec ST & SVT heritage helps here). Brakes are also very good with 4 wheel disk and ABS. Winter driving is helped by the traction control, heated seats & mirrors. Summer is fun w/ the sunroof, A/C & the great sounding Sony speakers and tuned stereo with a sub. I found the car very well optioned for the price. I look forward to drive it as much as possible.
Favorite Features
Street appearance (GFX) package. Makes it look like the WRC Focus. 2.3 L. Sport suspension. 4 wheels disk brakes. Leather & suede interior seats. Audiophile stereo with Sony speakers & sub. Foldable & heated mirrors
Suggested Improvements
2.3 with the addition of the turbo would be just pure fun!

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 SE 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
The exhaust on this car is loud. I wake my neighbors in the morning when I start it up. The seats are not comfortable. When sitting behind other cars at a stop light, exhaust comes into the cabin even if the intake/air conditioning is off. Don't buy this car. I guess that "quality is no longer job one" at Ford.
Favorite Features
My favorite feature is that there is plenty of head room.
Suggested Improvements

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 ST 4dr Sedan (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
Review
It may seem silly, but the removable cup holders ended up being quite the lifesaver! Fast turns and sharp braking always caused my coffee to spill over, and now cleaning is a snap! Just take the cupholder out after work and pop it into the dishwasher. Awesome idea, wonder why my other cars didn't have this feature. The major flaw I found is that the paint is scratched and chipped way too easily. New scratches seem to appear out nowhere everyday! Everything else on this car is solid, and this car is definitely underpriced considering its build quality, reliability, and amusing driving experience.
Favorite Features
Spacious interior, smooth shifting, can handle extremely high speeds rather well, removable cupholders, good mpg, solid brakes.
Suggested Improvements
Faster pick-up speeds [like after a red light] Easily scratched.

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 SES 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
Review
Good car overall, interior is roomy but cup holders far away and cups tip over. Have always felt the car pulled to the right, I'm a women so the excuse I get it's just the road. Steering is stiff to me. Pirelli tires not good, only 21,000 miles and already need replaced. Ford states tires have even wear but baldness not their problem.
Favorite Features
Good gas mileage, easy to park, roomy interior and trunk space.
Suggested Improvements
Put tires that get more than 20k miles on. The center arm rest needs moved, elbow keeps hitting it and then it opens and anything in falls out into the back seat

Review
I bought this ZX4 as a salvage fix up had 6000 miles on it. I now have 17000 and it is a very good car so far. No problems. Decent ride for a small car. Handles well. Good acceleration. Very pleased as of this time. I get 25 mpg with city and freeway driving.
Favorite Features
Premium sound system sounds great. Roomy trunk for a small car. Comfortable heated seats.
Suggested Improvements
Needs a rear interior light. Bigger center armrest. Kind of a bland design but that was changed for 2008. Better exterior color choices.
