Ford Focus continues to be one of the most enjoyable compacts in its price range. Overall, it feels cushier than other compacts, both in terms of its comfortable seats and its soft suspension. Its fun to drive, however, with agile handling. Its comfortable on long trips and stable at high speeds. The Focus is among the best of the compacts in terms of ride quality and has been lauded by the enthusiast publications for its handling. For 2004, Ford has revised the steering and suspension to further improve the ride and handling.

2003 2004 Ford Focus Value Vehicle
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Driving economy and fun - Ford Focus Value out-the-door for Under $10,000.
Cons: Plan replacing the front brakes every 30k miles. The base model is difficult to locate.
Bottom Line:
Ford Focus loss leaders with air conditioning are a bargain. In a market where the word value is overused, the base model Focus fits the bill.

| Author's Rating: |

Pros: Affordable, mostly reliable, decent fuel consumption, wagon is spacious with no similar entry level competition
Cons: Cheap looking and feeling, coarse drive, dull.
Bottom Line:
If price is your main consideration, shop carefully and it should be perfectly serviceable.
If a well built compact car that is also FUN is your goal perhaps look elsewhere.

Better than a sharp stick in the eye...

Pros: Nice handling. Excellent standard equipment sound system. High driver's position due to seat design.
Cons: Mediocre mileage for vehicle class. Poor fit and function. Brakes squeal even when new.
Bottom Line:
If you have an opportunity to buy this vehicle used, I think it's OK if your expectations are not too high. I wouldn't pay book for it though.
