2005 Ford Focus ZX4 SE review from North America
"The Ford Focus is an excellent car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not had anything go wrong with the car, since I purchased it. It has not even been back to the dealer for adjustments of any kind.
General comments?
The performance and handling of the 2005 Ford Focus are excellent. The 2.0 four cylinder engine provides peppy performance. Even with the air conditioning on you never get the feeling that the car is underpowered. The low point of the car are the seats. The fabric that is covering the seats looks and feels cheap. I bought my Focus used and the interior was not a big enough shortcoming for me not to buy a Ford Focus.
