2nd Opinion – Chee
I almost purchased the Focus, once, because I saw it as an affordable way to do my part for clean air. But try as I might, I could not get around the plastic-fantastic interior and the fact that it was an aging car. This redesigned model – even with the upgraded materials of the SES trim – did little to answer my complaints, and in fact added one about its design. Yes, it’s a comfortable car to drive, with enough power for the day-to-day. The problem is that you can find better cars, Sync be dammed – which makes the Focus that car everyone almost buys. It will remain so until the company revamps its mechanicals.
