2005 Ford Focus S review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing seriously bad has happened to my focus as of yet. The only bad thing is I can't insert any Cd's, like the motor is dead. gonna take it in and have it fixed while they give me a loaner car, which I think is very nice. and oh yeah I hate how I don't have a rpm gauger thing... that really sucks... on a rare occasion my mind slips and I forget to change gear. that rpm thing would had made it a lot better.
General comments?
For 8,000 thousand dollars I am very happy with my car. it has enough power to pass by traffic and overall good acceleration . it held up to five people on the way to a casino the other night. these people weren't petite by any means... they all said there was enough room and they could have gone for hours the way they were. the ac is ice cold, the seats are comfortable, it has 6 cup holders, and there is quite a bit of trunk space. everything just looks very spacious for such a small car.
