| “My Personal Viewpoint.” Reviewing:
2005 Used Ford Focus ZX3 SE
The handling is decent, acceleration is decent with just me in the car--typical small four cylinder.
Pros —
great gas mileage. great seats, stiff suspension, fairly decent handling
Cons —
very little power, at 45k it got rattley and weak feeling, no Tach, boring interior--which is why i painted it :)

2005 Used Ford Focus ZX3 S
5 speed manual is pretty quick for a stock car that gets 35 mpg. Car is light and handles well, not much as far as repairs, will go forever.
Pros —
Quick, fuel efficient, decent looking
Cons —
Difficult to work on

| “Great Car!!” Reviewing:
2005 Used Ford Focus ZX4 SE
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.
Pros —
+ Very responsive brakes and throttle.
+ Very smooth handling and turning. + Good MPG on both city and highway. + Very reliable, have not had any problems with it yet, and have heard others that have driven it more than I have and had no major mechanical problems. + Is American and not Japanese
Cons —
- ABS is not standard on this car.
- A little more HP would have been nice.

| “Focus St Review” Reviewing:
2005 Used Ford Focus ZX4 ST
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.
Pros —
Great Starter Car, peppy, fun, styling and great for modding.
Cons —
None

2005 Used Ford Focus ZX4 ST
I love this car, great gas mileage, enough power, and great handling. The only thing that could use some help would be the acceleration and larger wheels. The interior is great quality, nothing loose and excelent sound system.
Pros —
Excellent Sound, SVT Suspension, Manual transmission
Cons —
16 in rims, could stand to be a little quicker

2005 Used Ford Focus ZX4 SE
It's Black and runs great. It also is a four cylinder car so it doesn't waste so much gas.
Pros —
If you press the gas hard enough it flies.
Cons —
It is a salvaged car so it has problems here and there.

2005 Used Ford Focus ZX5 SES
Nice little sport compact car, handles alot better than most other sport compacts I've been in.
Pros —
turns 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.
Cons —
could accelerate from 0 alittle better

| “Although Boring, This Car Is Great For The Average Driver.” Reviewing:
2005 Used Ford Focus ZX5 S
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.
Pros —
Fuel efficient, spacious rear seat, and plenty of trunk room.
Cons —
Stiff suspension, some cheap materials, and lack of "fun."
