2009 Ford Focus SEL review from North America
"I am impressed!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
I came from having a 2001 Expedition for 9 yrs. and traded for the Focus. This is a big change for us, but time to try and save some money on gas!!
First impressions... very tight, fit and finish very good, paint is excellent, roomy for a small car. Engine seems to have plenty of pep for this car.
Seat position is high with good visibility all around (does not feel like you are sitting on the ground).
I have the SEL, Silver with black leather, upgraded radio and sun roof. Radio has great sound. Steering wheel has the radio and cruise control on it and is very easy to use.
I will report back later for an updated review after a few more thousand miles.
