I've only test driven the new baseline model Focus, but my take is that it's a decent enough compact car. It handles well, it's fuel efficient, and Ford has been improving the quality of their cars and trucks in the past few years. It's not quite at the level of a Honda civic, of course, but anyone looking to get a cheaper coupe or sedan should probably consider the Focus. TBH, the Ford Fiesta is a better choice if you don't quite need the room of a Focus. I think it could very well be the best car in its price range, at least in the United States.
