5-speed manual FWD		 I've always liked Fords better than most other brands, and this was actually the first Ford I've owned. see full Ford Focus review
2004 4dr Sedan 145-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 At first, there was nothing desirable about the Focus. I had to search and search for its potential and finally started liking it. Then it broke down... twice. see full Ford Focus review

2009 2dr Coupe 143-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 Early Focus models has some problems. The Focus seems to be marketed almost exclusily towards the younger crowd. see full Ford Focus review
