I'm planning to buy a car for my sister. This is just for city driving and she is just a fairly new driver... She wants a hatchback and so far here are my choices.
This is the old Ford Focus Sports, the one with the Moonroof and Electronic seat adjustment.

I'll go for the Ford Focus...
It has more rear passenger headroom & cargo room.
It has a bigger engine but is more fuel efficient because of its better power to weight ratio (and also better automatic transmission). Although if it's up to me, I'd rather get the Ford Focus TDCi for its engine alone! :2thumbsup:
It has the lowest NVH level among all econo compact sedans.
The ride is a bit better and IMO more suited for the road conditions here in the Philippines.
Having all these difference, I feel that the price difference between the two of them is very justifiable when purchasing the Ford Focus HB.

If we're talking brand new, there is some indication that the new Mazda3 1.6 is more economical than before.
The advantage of the 2.0 is that it'll give you the same fuel economy at moderate speed... in other words, if you like to drive a bit more quickly, the 1.6 will use the same amount of gas as the 2.0.
But if you take it easy, you can save with the 1.6.

Just curious, is the old 2.0L focus hatch (with sunroof) still available from the dealers ? Their pricelists now indicate otherwise.
