7km/L for the GTA sounds about right. The Focus will consume roughly the same.

The Lancer still looks better for me. Still menacing as ever. But do choose a color limited to GTA only -- the blue one, I guess. Para meron ka pa rin sense of uniqueness among the other Lancers on the road.

The Focus isn't bad though. Has great features which you don't really need but a good-to-have nevertheless.

I just don't want to be a guinea pig as the Focus' engine is new & GDi. Still wishing that they wouldn't phase out the TDCi engine totally. That was one hell of an engine, powerful yet economical at the same time.
