Other than wanting more power, particularly in the lower gears, my 2006 Focus ZX5 is a joy to drive.

I love this car. Traded in my Sport Trac to get something easier on gas. I love the way it drives and for a 4 cylinder, has great acceleration...more than I had expected! It's fun to drive.

I have a Ford focus it's a 06 zx got it used I've had it over 6 years. The subframe in front is shot all open can not drive not safe. No mechanics ever warned me about any cracks or rust now it's to the point ware it's not fixable and now I have no car and has to be towed. I'm telling my story so it doesn't happen to anyone else I could of been killed or killed someone else. I will miss my car I had just hit 84 thousand miles and it was a good car always started and never had any major problems. But if I had been warned that the subframe was starting to crack and rust years ago I might still have a car.

After having the car a little over 1 1/2 months, 3000 miles and in the Texas heat of 95 deg here are my observations: 1) the A/C interuption during accellerations is annoying, especially if you just got in the car and it is not already pre cooled. 2) gas mileage averages 28-29.5 mpg with 50/50 driving type. More if A/C not used. 3) all else I'm pretty happy with so far. The A/C deal was not a make or break for me when I was deciding whether to buy or not. The many other advantages out weigh this flaw.

Bought the car for work/commute 2 months ago as gas prices were just eating me alive. Drive about 30k/yr. After ablut 5k mi, I've had no issues. The car has 29k mi. I do have a wheel bearing noise in front otherwise, everything else works fine. I'm actually surprised how comfortable the car rides. Performance is reasonable. Car looks somewhat cheap inside however, it's not an expensive car. For the money, it's much less expensive than it's Japenese counterparts & much better than it's American counterparts. Overall, for the money I definintely buy another Focus. By the way, I'm getting over 30 mpg combined. I am however, conscious about how I drive it.
