Ano po difference ng '09 Focus versus the one on sale in Ford showrooms now?
*edit*
Both hatches, both 2.0TDCi.
Are they both using powerShift Dual-Clutch Tranny?
What does the new Focus have?
*end edit*

And is it dangerous to go for second hand?

I think the new one only had a facelift (change of grill etc.) pero its still the same mechanically...

New wheels, new bumper, auto on/off headlights, rain-sensing wipers & auto-dimming rearview mirror.

Grill is the same, but the bar above the grill is now body colored.

Yes, the old one had chrome trim at the top of the grill just like the Trend and Ghia models.
I don't think there are interior changes aside from the auto-dimming rearview mirror.

What about yung preventive maintenance service? Mahal ba yung Ford Focus imaintain? Compared to other cars.. Hindi ba siya super mahal like (from what I hear) Chevrolet maintenance?
