OK, I read the link and the proof is right there, that is is NOT the US Focus!
Read this clip from the article:
"That's interesting because the Mazda 3 is, in all essentials, a Focusâ??not the current model, but the new small Ford that appears in Europe as the C-Max minivan this autumn and worldwide as a five-door hatchback in 2004."
Also, the Contour line is gone forever, but the 2005 Futura car coming is a good replacement. Look for it.
