2006 Ford Focus ZX5 5 door review from North America
"I love it to death, and so will you"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all.
General comments?
I had a 1998 Plymouth Neon Highline Sedan with 85,000 miles that I traded in for a sharp silver ZX5 with an automatic transmission. The Neon was a really good car up until I traded it in. The reason for trading the Neon in was that I know 2 people that have a 2005 ZX5 like mine, and love it. I have had mine since January, and I must honestly admit that I love the car a lot! I am a nurse and have 2 kids, and need a peppy and economical car for work. Trust me when I say this, but this car is the perfect fit for any single person looking for "cool wheels". It is also perfect for any college student or any 16 year old student who is just starting to learn to drive. This car is way quicker than the old Neon. Plus, it's much more comfortable and easier to drive. Just one test drive, and you will buy one quickly like I did.
