Incredible value for the price!

What a great surprise! Initially, I was not terribly excited about purchasing a Focus. After all, it seems that every third car on the road is a silver Focus. There is a reason for this! It far exceeds every other vehicle in it's price range. I am in my car for about three hours per day, so it is important for my vehicle to be comfortable, fuel efficient, and reliable. I am getting an average of 38 mpg highway and am thrilled with the performance. I would not hesitate to purchase another one and highly recommend this to anyone considering a purchase.

Impressed!

I had to replace my commuter car of 14 yrs (1996 Saturn coupe). It had 360,005 miles on it when I traded it in. I got 35 to 40 mpg so I had to find something similar for my 112 mile round trip to work. Ford was offering $4,000 rebates at the time so I looked into a Focus 2dr coupe. I really liked it and got an additional $1,000 off negotiating with the salesman. Final price $13,200. What a great car! 23,000 trouble free miles so far and my fuel mileage has ranged from 32 to 39 mpg. 2011 is the last year of this platform so they will be giving these things away toward the end of the year, take advantage of this and you'll get a great car at a great price.

Great Vehicle!

I bought my Focus last year and it's been wonderful! I've taken it on road trips and I've gotten 39-40 miles per gallon on the highway and interstates. It's very roomy, since we fit 4 adults comfortably plus luggage into the Focus. It's also nice that the seat heights adjust and the top part of the seat belts adjust also, so the seat belts don't cut across uncomfortably. My car has been wonderful and even started in 30 below weather! I highly recommend this vehicle! It maneuvers nicely on ice, snow, mud, mountains, and paved roads. The best purchase you'll ever make!

Great car

I love the way it handles and the interior design. Everything is comfortable, folks in the back seat are comfortable, the trunk is great compared to my old car, and the driving it great.

Every thing we hoped for and more

We were looking for an affordable small car that was solid in construction and offered great gas mileage. Our Focus, a 5-speed, has done just that. The $2,500 rebate brought the price down, and the gas mileage has been about 35 per gallon combined. The car shifts perfectly and gives it plenty of pep. It?s a great car, and we were happy we could buy an American-made product. No regrets.

Wow. This is a FORD?!

Ok when you have experience as a carsalesman and work directly with service shops you know which cars to stay away from and this one is a great car and does not require shop time as often as other makes. I wont repeat what others have said about comfort, reliability, safety, value, etc so I will just say that if you look at the consumer reports guides and read all the reviews you can no longer look at these cars the same way again. This will be my commuter car and one day my future children's car. It's that good. Watch out, Toyota and Honda!
