Even though the chassis is now 8 years old, the vehicle handles extremely well. It is a joy to drive every day. The suspension and steering communicate so well that you forget your driving an economy car.
The focus brakes are European hard. They grip well, and have very little fade.
The car is very affordable. I bought my focus new at a very good price, and my payments are pretty low.
There is an awful lot of intake noise from the engine. I think it is because of the plastic plenum that is used.
The vehicle has a high depreciation. I plan on holding on to vehicle until it dies.
Dealer service is terrible. I have been to 4 different dealers for service, and only one of the dealers had a nice waiting room and did not treat you like a second class citizen. Unfortunately, that dealer went out of business.
