2005 Ford Focus z3 ses review from North America
"Hi performance handling and fun to drive economy car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing is wrong, or has gone wrong with the car.
General comments?
Good fuel economy.
Steering is so smooth, the handling of this vehicle is phenomenal. The small compact wheel allows for great response.
The Mazda designed duratec engine runs very smooth and quiet with lots of pep.
This is the same engine in the Mazda3.
Really good view and seating arrangement, I like the upright position of the front seats.
From what I have researched, this is a much better car than the original focus. Much more reliable.
