Foucus owners, please tell me your experiences.
Much appreciated.

nice car, actually naka-road test na din ako nyan sa Ford Alabang. liked most of it except for the Cheesy Mags that says "F..." and the steering was slightly over-boosted for my taste. Other than that the drive was extremely satisfying, in-fact the power was ok when others were bashing it for the lack of grunt. i think the driving experience would be even better with the manual tranny. give us your review after 1K, 10K on the odometer.

looks good overall. the dash really appeals to me. yan ang mga type ko dark color with the sporty look, pati yun sidings niya. saw one, actually 3, at atc last week. love the tri-color orange variant. very convinient yun micro-switch equipt hatchdoor handle. what I don't like is the hatch door opening too high. I had a little difficulty reaching it. Pano pa kaya si Tess?

IMO, when we test drove the focus sedan, we found it good but the looks is too conservative for our age. The focus hatch naman is also good and fun to drive but its overpriced.

my taste bud doesn't appeal to the exterior ...lamang lang ng isang ligo sa lynch...ok ang interior...

I would personally pick mazda 3.

just my 2 cents.
