Too bad they've been recalled 7 times (soon to be 8) since they were sold in the US for the last 3 years... what a classic example of Ford engineering and quality control

I think it actually looks okay. I believe the Cosworths have something to do with AWD and turbo.

It looks better than the regular Focus. I like the color... but it's still nothing I'd put my money in if it looked like that.

Forgot to add... it looks like an Audi.

not bad, but its still hard to make a car that ugly look good, at least they didn't bother with the 4 or 5 door models cause they are worse off than the hatch...

I do believe that's a european model Focus (much better built than the POS Focus here in the states that has a running total of around 8 recalls I believe) - I would like to live in the European market for no other reason than the mid and compact cars they have for sale there! Bring some of those bad boys over here and we'll see some good compact cars!

Dont forget the 6 pending safety investigations in addition to the 8 recalls. I do not care what is under the hood of that car, it isnt going to do much good when your rear wheels fall off or your front suspension collapses.

I do not understand why the focus is even praised period. It is a deathtrap.

i take it you guys arent too fond of the Matrix???... i think it looks great... on paper-- like in SCC, it looks awesome. but in person.. looks like ***. like a lowered minivan with an agressive front. my friend was thinking about getting one.. what'd u guys think??

back to the topic a hand. the focus doesnt look that bad. but thats just too much effort and money to spend on a car that ugly, imo, of course.
