I re-iterate. Performance was not the objective of the focus (non-SVT) period. It is a world based economy car. Europe is fortunate enough to have more of that style of performance oriented heritage and following than NA. Don't make the car or the company out to be something the're not, then be upset when it doesn't conform to your desires. I love everything about my shitbox because I understand the whole picture.

Sorry, just sick and tired of hearing how much some guys dislike Ford and the Focus. Just understand what you're getting ahead of time, obviously excluding the lemons. If you want something faster and for less money then go trade it in on the echo and be happier.
