The Best Compact Car I've Known
I've been driving Civic for 6 years and kind of tired of driving no-character car. Finally I was hooked up by the new Focus, especially the cool design. Unexpectedly, the interior was also neat and clean. Very quiet, too. I traded in my Civic with no regret. Frankly, I didn't know Ford has come this far matching, actually exceeding Japanese sedans. Great work, Ford!
Great Little Car!
Traded a 2002 Mustang GT for this car. I needed better gas mileage and so far I love this car just as much as my 'stang. It's comfy, zippy, and just looks awesome! Love all the gizmos! Great job Ford. Thanks for a great little "Gas Getter"!
2008 Ford Focus
I've had this car for almost a year, and I love it. It has about 26,000 miles on it now. I've driven it mostly short distances, but have also driven long distances as well and it performs great. I even drove it during Snowmaggedon 2009 on the East Coast and the handling was excellent. I've never had any problems with anything the previous reviewers have mentioned. In fact, mechanics have complemented me on how good everything on the car looks! Absolutely no mechanical problems or issues with tire wear or alignment.
I love my new Focus!
I could not be happier with my new Focus! It's comfortable, safe, fun to drive, and has pretty good mileage for a non-hybrid. I got the Vermilion Red, and it really stands out. With the incentives offered by Ford, you just can't go wrong with everything you get for the price. The incentives allowed me to upgrade to the SES model. The Sync system is great for the inevitable day when we have a hands-free cell phone law.
Love the Focsus SES
This car is fun to drive, looks good and gets great gas mileage. If youre looking for a great commuter or an efficient family car this is a good choice. My best mileage so far is 38.2 on my 30 mile drive to work.
