2009 Ford Focus Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Great every day car fr using for work, shopping, general use and looks quite pretty in black- decent performance - decent mpg - comfortable - well built - plenty of goodies - just a really good every day car.... would have another tomorrow and probably will....

Performance: Acceleration - Average for the compact class. Braking - Good and even without ABS stops straight in panic situations. Handling - Above average, very predictable and stable. Build Quality: Good, no squeaks or rattle. I did have to have the Audio Processor Interface Module replaced but it was done for free under warranty. Appearance: Interior: Laid out reasonably well, materials are average quality. Styling (while subjective) is restrained with very legible and intuitive radio and HVAC controls. Exterior: Best viewed from a rear 3/4s view, the front end styling has been the cause of controversy on the '08+ Foci. Cost of ownership: Very reasonable, the dealer I bought the car from has a tires for life deal so I've only had to do oil changes and tire rotations...and I've already got a new set of tires. As far as gas mileage is concerned the best I've ever got was 35.4mpg(mostly highway driving) with most tanks averaging 30mpg. Fun factor: This car is more fun than people give credit for, with it's IRS (unlike some direct competitors that still use torsion beams) it's very tossable and stable, brakes are good and acceleration in most situations is more than acceptable.

I bought this one with 93000 miles on it and boy do I love it. Its like brand new and she will last a long time.

Performance is above average. I wish it had a bit more power. Maybe after I install better exhaust, intake, and tweak the CPU a bit I'll definitely see a difference in the power. Also once I lower and stiffen the suspension the overall look of the car will be more aggressive...much like how I drive. Once the performance chip is modified, the gas mileage should get even better. This is really a fun car to drive along with your friends.

Performance - Great acceleration, braking, handling Build Quality - No repairs needed, No squeaks, or rattles Appearance - Great interior and exterior styling Cost of Ownership - Great maintenance Warranty Fun Factor - fun to drive? Gas Milage - Great Gas Milage A average of 33 miles a Gallon

Good little car with an automatic transmission, decent radio, and SYNC system.

Overall good build. Phenomenally stable in turns. One of the best in it's class at handling. The acceleration leaves a bit to desire, but it's to be expected at 110bhp. Overall, it can be a very fun car to drive. Fun factor - 9/10 (for it's class)

I really like the performance; it has a manual transmission (thank God). Don't like the metallic paint job but all colors only come in metallic for this vehicle. Wish it had an oil pressure gauge and rear wheel disc brakes. It's a nice looking car otherwise.

I really enjoy driving this car. it gives me a good ride and especially great on gas.Handles very well for the size!Appearance is very nice. Acceleration is good, braking excellent.Overall i would recommend this car to all my friends.

Comfortable to drive, reliable, good on gas but still fun for a daily
