obviously i'd like the S3 more. but that fucus is way better in the front. worse in the back (than the current one)


Please: put something meaningful in your post subject! NOT "please readme!".

"your" is possessive, "you're" is the conjunction that is short for "you are", "there" is for "the dictionary is over THERE", "their" is the possessive one, and "they're" is a conjunction that is short for "they are". have a nice day :rolleyes:

When will this car die? I hate Focuses and probably always will. Don't ask me why...I just do.

Hey Wthermans you have to admit that the one we saw Sunday was awesome. However that is the only focus I've seen that I actually liked.

Give me one of the new ones with a blown motor to drop a 3.0 V6 in and I'll like it quite a bit!

Is this a full redesign or just a face lift?

I like it! The back is just ok. They need to do something else to the rear since the front is so different. It's true the rear is holding it back.

Think of the understeer !!!!! The Contour has a 63:37 balance to the front. Now put a bigger (and I presume heavier) engine in a smaller car and what do we get ??

Like the exterior facelift though....wonder did they fix the awful dash and seating position ??
