    Just order the FUCKING Focus already! Jesus Christ! LOL

    The thrill of the bi-HID headlights is going to fade years before that of the Focus' interior amenities.

      The mazda is a much simpler car, it lacks a lot of features that the focus has to offer. I feel like they are well put together cars though and are simple and shouldn't break. I really like the skyactiv mazdas and you can get them in a hatchback for around 20k. But the focus is such a nice car, it almost has a luxury feel inside of it, and it looks fantastic. I would go with the ford.

          Well.... I did it. Got a 2012 Focus Titanium with the winter package, nav and a moonroof. MSRP on the car is $25885, I got this one for $23861 plus $1500 in rebates, so my out-the-door price was about $3500 below msrp and $1000 below invoice.

          It's on the way from another dealer in Idaho, I should have it by Wednesday. Fuck ya!! I'm stoked.

              the focus reminds me of the ct200H on the inside, lexus version of prius.

                          errr, I wish the fit had better mpg numbers, that's my favorite economy car hands down.

                          As a valet I drive a lot of rental cars and the fords really have stepped it up. I'm sure you'll love your new focus. 40mpg is really quite impressive for how big/nice these cars have gotten.

                              Congrats! I love the new Focus. After recently ditching my SVT Focus I had for 7 years I wouldn't hesitate to hop in a new one. Heard tons of good about the news ones, especially the Titanium package.
