| Price of the Ford Focus: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Bought used 19k miles, good condition, $9,500 |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
$16,700 is quite a bit of money for a two-liter four sedan, but the Focus has build quality and content that justify it pretty well. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Focus is one of the cheapest new cars. There are others that are cheaper, but they basically come stripped of options like AC and radios. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It gave me the payment i needed while still providing most of the things i need in a small sedan. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Price was so low it was almost a concern. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Cheaper, with better standard features, than any competitors (Yaris, Honda Fit, Hyundai Accent). |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It was an affordable car even when loaded with lots of options! |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
For what it is, it is not overpriced. The payments do not stress out my budget. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Got it really cheap at a year end clearance sale. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Bought it new in March 25 2006.With dealer incentive paid $13,480.5/100,000 drive train warranty and 5/75 extended warranty |

I git a brand new, Top trim level, loaded car with Power everything, 6 disc CD/Mp3, ABS, Traction control, handling package for under $13,000. |
| 2006 | 2dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Focus is a lot of car for the money compared to smaller cars that sell for similar prices. Incentives allow a sale price far below sticker. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
It was 2000 dollars less than the yaris, which had three times the miles... |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
$16,000 bought me a car with a ton of features (for the price), a $100,000 mile warranty, and decent gas milage. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |

| 2004 | 2dr Hatch 145-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Not only is the sticker price on a used or new Focus low, the parts are low too. Dramatically lower than Euro or Japanese cars. For example, a Focus 30K service is around $200-$250. A Subaru 30K service is $400-$500. |
| 2003 | 4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I paid $13,400 for a car that listed for $18,995. Used Protege5s were selling for more at the time. No other car with leather, sunroof, ABS, and such could be bought for a similar price. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon 145-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
This was the most inexpensive wagon available at the time. Lots of value for the money. |

| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
What can I say, it's a cheap car. At the time I purchased in 2009, the car was almost three years old and still had a sale price of $13000. It's currently only worth less than half of what was paid four years later. I purchased this car because of need and very limited time to make a choice. I knew I didn't want another Nissan because of their weak engines. My sister had just bought the 08 Focus SE model a few months before and was happy with hers, so I thought this might be an okay choice. Read on. |
| 2003 | 4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The Focus SVT would have cost me about $5,000 more than the Mazda Protege5. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Hyundai Elantra
| Price of the Hyundai Elantra: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2013 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Comparing a base Elantra to a base Mazda 3 and Honda Civic the features and options you get in your base sticker price for an Elantra you would have to pay extra to get the same options in a Mazda 3 or Honda Civic.<br /> <br /> Heated seats is a big plus, especially if you live in Canada. Mazda and Honda you have to pay extra to get this option. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Paid sticker price less $2,000 rebate. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Same price can only get me a average or less than average featured Civic or Corolla. Toyota and Honda both refused to provided payment plan due to not enough history, Hyundai just picked me up right away. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The Elantra is about $4000-$6000 less than a comparable vehicle from Japanese car makers. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Cash 4 clunkers got me to look. Consumer Reports rated #1. 1st looked @ Civic,Corola. Had better head room w/sunroof, best warranty, best price, Best brakes, towing capacity, interior room. I NEVER thought Elantra, EVER, Now I take it out, "just 4 a ride" |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Best small car for the money right now. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
very cheap for what you get |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
A lot of bang for the buck! |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Hyundai cost less money out-the-door than a Civic without air-conditioning or a corolla without anti-lock brakes. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
See above. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Price was about $17k. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
2008 Elantra SE seemed to offer a lot of value for money; with the features I now have, I would have paid a lot more money with a Civic, Corolla or some other option. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I got a no haggle price. I just called the dealership, told the salesperson my price, and the cash deal(at my price) was complete in about 3 hours of my phone call. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Rebate allowed this car to be had, including extended warrantyu if desired, for about $1000 less than most comparable Totyate Corolla LE. Honda was no where near close ($3000 more). |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Good price/value |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
great value compared to other vehicles. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I was able to get a good interest rate and what seemed like a good final price from the dealer. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
$4000-5000 less than any US or Japanese of equal options and size. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The price was reasonable and the interest rate was good for the time. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Considering all the features that came with the car, plus the cost of operating, and insuring the car, the Elantra is an economical car. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Great price at the time for the size of vehicle |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Is/was a bargain price, great value |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The price was great considering the options. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
it was cheaper then a civic |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
cost was less than I expected |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Best bang for the buck! Car comes fully loaded at a reasonable price |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Brand new it costs less than some competitors used prices. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
were affordable for the amount of car you were getting. |
| 2002 | 4dr Hatch 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Used Elantras are quite cheap. Any car of the same year/size/class with the same features/options would cost significantly more. |
