I went to look at the 08 SES sedan they have in pembroke last night, as well as the regular SE one they just took off the truck. The SES I looked at is black on black leathers with accent stitching, the larger Euro rims, no sunroof, SYNC, heated seats, the interior accent lighting package, etc etc. When I started it, it certainly sounded like a Focus, and I liked that. I didn't bother to drive it, as I want to have an unbiased opinion on the driving dynamics of the car when I take one out with my gf, who'd be the one purchasing anyways.

I agree with some of you that the interior in these new Focus's are very hawt indeed, especially ones like the double black one I looked at last night. There are many styling cues from the new Mondeo in the UK, as well as some mustang and thunderbird, etc etc. The interior looks richer/more valuable than the previous genereations, and I think it's fair to say that they look better inside than the Dodge Caliber or Avenger, and absolutely BLOW AWAY the Echo, Yaris, and other asian cars.

I'll go and try one or both of them out with my gf this wkd, and leave a detailed review about them...
