OWNERS SAY...(Auto File)
My dealer was offering $5,000 off every Focus and it was too good a deal to pass up. I'm 42 and I feel like I'm 23 when I jump behind the wheel. I love it because it is fun to drive, fast, handles great, and the ergonomics are nicely laid out. I am a tad concerned about the quality of materials, which aren't up to the standards of Honda and VW. The shifter is also rubbery and vague. But for the $10 grand I paid, I can't really complain.

The Mazda Protege had a better dash layout, but what sold me on the Focus was the exceptional ride and handling. With the new 2.3-liter engine, it is also much quicker. I was wary of buying a Focus because of its recall history and the reputation of domestic economy cars, but I couldn't be happier. The car remains as tight and rattle-free as the day I bought it. On top of this, it has got to be the most fun-to-drive small car I have driven.
