I can think of anyone here that has so little automotive taste that they'd want drive a focus of any type. ;)

I like the styling thats been draped over the face alright, but yes its the focus-shape of the car and the generic ricer-ish syle of everything on the car that has me saying YUK!

32mpg Focus > Anything you own :p

Light weight, sharp handling car that's also fuel efficient and practical.

My god, what a moron I am for choosing that :d unce:

There's so much more to being a well rounded automotive enthusiast than just appreciating straight line speed. :shake:

The front end of it is actually decent looking for once. The current ones look like complete crap. I've never been a fan of the WRX styling though.
