2012 Ford Focus
A couple of things, first with the good
1. It actually looks really good
2. People are estimating a 25k-27k price tag which is a great deal
Now onto the bad
1. It's basically a MS3
2. It's still FWD
3. The EcoBoost engine still leaves a lot to be desired
In closing the only Focus I would like to own would be the RS, but I doubt that will happen in the coming years.

How does the Ecoboost I4 leave a lot to be desired? That engine, in that particular configuration and power level, doesn't currently exist in any car. There are weaker versions in significantly heavier cars that are tuned for economy but that won't compare to the ST. There's also a 300hp version in the Radical, but again, not really comparable (unless you want to talk about potential).

How on Earth could you think the two would compare?
