naz,
Read your review, yeah the S/SE trim levels on the '05+ Focus caused me to shudder badly. While I was waiting to do the papers on my SES, I sat in a brand new S level Focus with manual and could only go "Holy s**t, how can this be the same car?" Though I will admit, that even the SES suffers from "plasticus mostitcus" (Which I resoolved on mine with some snappy aluminum look inserts to break up the grey, grey & grey of the interior) :P
Considering I came from an Oldsmobile, as neutered as the '05 is, it's miles ahead of what I had in terms of the handling ;) Though the little devil in the back of my head keeps whispering "SVT suspension upgrade" :D
Stock, I found the Focus competant if somewhat lethargic in acceleration. Add an intake & exhaust & WOW! :blink: :lol:
