Im sorry but I hate this car... I really wish someone would tell me something impressive in any means that would justify the dorky looks of this horrible car....

Definitely can't touch the Echo in terms of dorkiness!
I kinda like the hatchback, kinda, but really dislike the rest (I just have a soft spot for hatches ) Once the Focus RS is upon us, all will change..

As a Service Tech in a Ford dealership, I love this car. I wouldnt own one myself, but the simple fact that it has replaced the Contour makes me love the car. A lot easier to work on , and a lot less problems

Hey well now that the SVT focus is coming out it will go to 60 in an impressive 7.0 seconds...Thats what they reported. Which would make it a pocket rocket...However i still don't like the looks.

They should produce a focus that looks like Ford's Focus GT(I think that's what it is) concept. That car looked sweet, even for a Focus.

ugly
the focus is a great example of a ugly car with good marketing and maybe some subliminal messages. Otherwise I don't understand why someone would buy one

ONE sweet looking focus
Well, I'll agree with everybody. The focus is one DAMN ugly car, but I've just recently seen one that I really really like. They showed on on TV, it was at the Detroit car show, I think, But they had made the hatchback into a cube van design, and I tell you, impractical as they come, and it doesn't sound like to would change it enough to make it look good, but it did. If anybody finds a picture, they should post it. I'd like to see what everybody thinks.

I'm not a big fan of them either, especially the sedan (ick!). However, at the Ford dealer I'm currently working at, they modified one that is now for sale. A black hatchback with a subtle bodykit, small spoiler at the top of the back window(Dodge Caravan Sport style), custom exhaust (rumbly, not weedeater), cold air intake, 5-speed, tinted windows. It's actually really nice (and sounds good driving by). 16 inch 6-spokers and lowered suspension as well.

i think it's ok looking, but it's a ford which makes it awful
at the seattle auto show my Dad convinced me to sit in it. It was comfy [the sporty one i sat it], but i sure hope noone saw me sitting in a cheap Ford! |

I would take a Focus coupe or hatchback over the slightly more highly regarded 2001 Civic. They look the same, so I would rather have the Ford.
