Did anyone miss this part
"Since its North American introduction in 1999, Focus has been hailed for being an affordable car that handles and drives like a car more than twice its price. For 2008, the Focusââ¬â¢s curb weight is down by 60 pounds, even though the body structure is stiffer. This allowed the suspension engineers to sharpen the carââ¬â¢s steering and handling while improving ride quality at the same time.
Engineers reworked and improved the strength of the roof structure, the package tray, the connections between the rear floor and the underbody and the door systems. A stiffened cross-car beam under the instrument panel connects the car side-to-side and provides better lateral stiffness."
The car platform is the same but everything is much improved....
This is a holdover till 2010 when everyone gets the NEW focus
here is a actual real life pic
