New Ford Focus revealed

Wow. That looks great for a small car. Even better for a Ford product.

The problem is, this one is going to Europe and we get a rehash of the old model. Worse yet, here in the states they are getting rid of the hatchback and the wagon and just going with a sedan and a bland as butter coupe. Why the doemestic automakers continue to leave their best stuff in Europe and give us leftovers is beyond me.

they are, a base euro focus would be $19-24k USD, too expensive to buy such a car like this being a small car marketed in the US. (I found this in this months motor trend reviewing fords future) like opus said the hatch will be gone in the states(IMO thts a dumb move) and we get a fucked-in-the-butt coupe.

WHY?????!!!!! Why can't they bring a great looking car that that to the U.S.? We like cars with great designs too, not just trucks.

Just like the Mondeo is NOT a Ford design, this too isn't. But I agree, why doesn't the damn Ford bring these cars here?

So, the Europeans are getting a great-looking new car on a THIRD-generation platform, while we're getting a 1998 REHASH of the FIRST-generation platform that looks like a POS Hyundai from fifteen years ago?!

Hmmm... I see a bit of bmw flame surfacing, like the character line crease and the bottom of the doors. Looks great for a compact car either way!

Wow. Compared to this, the American version of the Focus looks like it's having a tantrum. :(

Too small a car for me but I have to admit it looks good. Beauty is only skin deep so better have a look at the engine and drivetrain to make sure it meets your specifications before you buy. I gave up on Ford after Ford had 3 strikes in a row with the Grand Marquis cars I used to drive,
