One of my buddies bought a Ford Fucous with the auto in it...........lmao this car is a real turd. I helped him put some bolt ons on it to see if it would come out of turd mode and the car is still a large turd. what is there that will bring it back from the toilet?
THANKS

Yea but they handle unbelivably well.
The SVTs are decent. I think you can buy some of the SVT engine parts and stick 'em on the regular engines for more pep. My gf has an auto focus. Eh, it's a nicer car than my Cavalier, but I think mine is faster.
they driveing school i went to we had to drove the focus and yes those things are so slow geting on the highway was scary with them things and the motor was so loud on the highway and then when you let of the gas the car would slow down so fast. i didnt like them thinks at all. and there ugly

indeed. they are pretty fun to drive because of that. Parallel parking is a piece of cake too.

I'm sure it would still assrape my 2.0L sunturd
get rid of the soccer mom transmission. power isnt everything... the great handling for an econobox makes up for it.
GM could only wish to make a fun to drive FWD compact like that.
The ONLY GM fwd compact I can say was as fun to drive as the Focus, was the 91-02 Saturn S-series.

If you have no power to get you through the turns of course you're going to think it handles good.
My neighbor bought a new focus.. It isn't that bad, really. The heated seats are a nice option. It does handle pretty good, but it felt a lot slower than my Ion..
Red 2005 Saturn Ion-3 Coupe
Burgundy 2006 Saturn Ion - My winter beater
focus is as fast as 2.2L cavlier

Real cars don't make power at the front wheels......
THEY LIFT THEM !!!

Drop a 302 in it with a Mustang rear and then call it a turd!
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.

as soon as you realize that handling has nothing to do with how fast a car can corner you will realize that the focus handles extremely well for an econobox fwd'er.
take your car on a track, and then take a focus out. you will be amazed at the feedback, steering, and adjustability the focus has at the limit.
Wow, you're an idiot and have obviously never went to autocross. You see a ton of focuses and miata's out there. Both of which are slow as hell stock yet do amazingly well.

Thanks for you words of wisdom. Now when did the auto 2.0 Focus become a autox sports car? Now your bringing up Miatas?

The subject was a slow ATX Focus, not how many people take their stock Focus' around cones in a parking lot.

Moms 2000 four door SE focus is slower than my 95 geo prism, and I know hers can not handle anything.

I had a Focus as a rental and really enjoyed it! It was peppy i thought, lots of room (head and leg room too, which suprised me being 6 2 ) and handled like a champ
Also, I had an Sc2 93 and that thing was awesome.
