2005 Ford Focus ZX4 ST Reviews

The ST looks more aggressive when the silver grille insert is swapped out with the black one from the SES.  I can't give a 5-star rating on the build since there's a LOT of plastic in the interior and unfortunately made more on the "cheap side" causing it to break more easily than in other models.  I can only give 4-stars for the 'appearance' category since the black rear-bumper insert doesn't have provisions for a second exhaust tip.  This requires fabrication on the user-end.  Performance-wise, this car hauls ass and is about as quick as a Mustang GT when purchased as the ST package.  On long road trips, a trip to Austin and back was made on only one tank of gas and totalled 408 miles.  The Fun Factor increases considerable when adding performance parts from www.steedafocus.com and www.focussport.com.  If you're a gearhead, opt in for the Cosworth build-up kits.

never have had to do so much work on a car, but cant seem to get rid of it.  its been through alot and survived alot.  prolly a lemon car but i wont get rid of it any time soon.

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.

So far I think its a great car. Powers decent, handles good,and brakes good. Looks good and the rims aren't bad.
