Used 2004 Ford Focus SVT Consumer Reviews
Best of 2 Worlds
Was going down the Honda Accord path but wanted to be different, save $$$ and answer the need for 'More Power Captain'. Family and friends that have high mileage cars have had better luck with Fords vs. GM cars for Major Buck type repairs (IE A/C, transmission, engine mgmt), so I bought the Ford. Great car with more room than expected. If you appreciate Upgraded Engineering on everything that matters in a car built for performance, buy an SVT, otherwise by a car with a turbo and a spoiler bolted on. Rock On Ford!!!
MOST FUN CAR TO DRIVE
THIS CAR IS WITHOUT THE MOST FUN FOR THE BUCK. IT STOPS,GOES AND HANDELS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER CAR FOR THE SAME MONEY. MY FRIENDS WITH TOYOTAS LOVE TO DRIVE THIS "AMERICAN" CAR. THEY EVEN WANT ONE. ONE WORD FOR THE SVT FOCUS---- --FUN-FUN-FUN
SHO Alternative
Always liked the Tauras SHO's...This is a smaller version. Since my kids are now driving I could justify this car. Lot's of fun to drive.
In the mountains
I have been very pleased with my SVT.It does really well in the mountains as it seems to always have a gear to climb any pass rapidly!.I was concerned about the gas milage but am getting 25 mixed and 30 on the highway and I use 87 octane which seems to work fine at our high altitude.This is a world class car and not just for the money.
POCKET ROCKET, small size but large powe
I was looking for a small car with alot of power. SVT is that way to go. i test drove a few other cars (celica,eclipse,sunfire) though each have there benefits, i must say that the FocusSVt is on top.
