2005 Ford Focus ZX4 SE Review
Proscomfy, cute Conscup holders, slow

Cute Lil' Focus! — It not all that fast but its still zippy. It doesn't have very many compartments and the cup holders are stupid. It looks like a girly car- at least I think so. Its really comfortable for road trips and to sleep in... haha. Pretty good on gas if you don't drive like I do. But more than anything... Its cute!

2005 Ford Focus ZX3 SE Review
Prosgreat gas mileage. great seats, stiff suspension, fairly decent handling Consvery little power, at 45k it got rattley and weak feeling, no Tach, boring interior--which is why i painted it :)
25
My Personal Viewpoint. — The handling is decent, acceleration is decent with just me in the car--typical small four cylinder. The build quality is so-so The appearance is good, especially if it is detailed, and you rid yourself of the stock wheels. Cost of gas and insurance is reasonable. When i first got the car it was fun, I'm pretty much bored of it now. | ||

Focus On It — First off I hate Focus's. the only reason I bought this is b/c It hadn' hit the books yet so I got it for 3k under the dealership retail price. That aside, It is a nice car and handles pretty well for stock. The mpg is another nice thing 25-28 city and about 30+ highway. I've had it for about 2 years now and its kind of grown on me. It's still NOT the fastest thing on the planet but i am starting to devise some plans. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Pros+ Very responsive brakes and throttle. Cons- ABS is not standard on this car.

Great Car!! — I bought this car used with 17,000 miles, and have since driven it up to about 53,000 miles. I have not had 1 problem with it yet, save the fact that the CD/MP3 player occasionally skips. This may be due to the previous driver, becuase I have not heard of the problem among other Focuses. The reliablility of this car is great, and if you change your oil on time and don't drive like a moron, you won't be fixing anything. The handling is excellent, the brakes and throttle are very responsive, and there is plenty of room to upgrade this car. | ||

2005 Ford Focus ZX4 ST Review
ProsGreat Starter Car, peppy, fun, styling and great for modding. ConsNone

Focus St Review — Though a watered down version of the Focus SVT which is the Focus RS of Europe the Focus ST is very strong for being a small sedan. This car has taken a massive beating in terms of getting rear ended and all I have needed was a new bumper. It's performance is second to none as it pops right off the line and can stop to match. Its handling is very well with the Macpherson suspension and the control blade IRS. Its appearance is very Euro to its twin over the pond though its interior is one of its own kind the only difference between it and its Euro Twin. Its easy on fuel and the repairs have been few and far between. I enjoy driving this car very much its a great starter car. | ||

2005 Ford Focus ZX5 SES Review
Prosturns on a dime, with just a CAI and Cat Back exhaust it will put you back into your seat, breaks nice and easy and does have much if any body roll. Conscould accelerate from 0 alittle better

ProsFuel efficient, spacious rear seat, and plenty of trunk room. ConsStiff suspension, some cheap materials, and lack of "fun."

Although Boring, This Car Is Great For The Average Driver. — It's not bad, but I'm not sure if it's good either. I haven't dealt with it long enough to determine the build quality of the car, and the car isn't beautiful, but it doesn't look that bad I guess. The 4 cylinder engine isn't very powerful, but it is efficient on fuel. |
