Just traded in for a brand new vehicle

I love my new vehicle. The interior design is comfy and spacious and I have Sirius Satellite Radio so I can listen to many sports events going on throughout the country. Excellent highway vehicle and gets great gas mileage.

Great Value

Wasn't intending to buy this, but dealer matched. $4k rebate offered by Ford. Bought the SE hatchback for $12.5k plus tax. Surprisingly roomy and comfortable for a little commuter car. Just got back from a 1200 mi round-trip to upstate NY. Gets upper 30s mpg.

I love my little hatchback Focus!

From the minute they brought it off the showroom floor and handed me the keys, I have loved my new Focus. It's really comfy, fun to drive. Visibility is good all around - no blindspots. It handles great. Heated seats, steering wheel and wipers for winter will come in handy in Maine this winter!

Will be glad when lease is up

Looks nice outside but Interior looks and feels cheap. Seats are uncomfortable and overall it feels cramped and I'm only 5'5. Engine fan runs loud at times. If it fits your budget it's an "ok" choice, but if you can afford more go for a different car. I have no intentions to purchase when lease expires.

Most reliable car I have ever owned This is my 4th

We bought our 4th focus because it will last a very long time. It gets great gas mileage. We knew what we where getting. This is really the only small car we would consider.

Great overall carr

Great car for the price point. It feels sporty while at the same time being a perfect daily driver. Has pretty good fuel economy while still feeling zippy since it is so light.
