Ford - at least they circled the mistake.
Seriously, the Focus isn't a bad car; we test drove one, and fully intended to buy it at first, but the little things annoyed me. It was a ZX3, which has the engine upgrade over the base sedan model (although that might've changed in the model year since), and it accelerated and moved just fine for normal driving. But, for example, the armrest is in an absolutely horrendous place, especially if you get the 5-speed (and why wouldn't you); if you have it folded down, your elbow would hit it every time you go to shift to second or fourth, and if it's flipped up, well, why have an armrest in the first place? Plus I didn't like the instrument panel, what's with the tach with no redline?
On the other hand, that SVT Focus is one hot piece of work. Probably not what you're looking for, but I wouldn't mind having one of those.
