Well I was hoping for a better tagline than "it's no ___box" but overall well done Focus. Get a good EcoBoost mill under that hood and hoo boy.
Wow, if the Titanium is stopping in 110 feet and pull .91g, what's the ST going to do?

Answer = Yes
Well, which is it? Yes, or nope?
"Nope" which? The Ford, Chevy or neither?
I don't like that 2-tone interior in the Ford...

Both coupe and hatch. The two tone interior had a chance, but I think they overdid it, maybe it they toned it down 15-20% it would be better.

The new Focus looks great in black. I don't care for the front-end treatment that much, and black minimizes that to a large degree. The non-defeatable traction control would be an issue for me, but as a family car and commuter car for my wife, I suppose I could live with it.

Once again, Chevy comes up short... 
Throw a turbo in the Focus, allow complete disabling of the electronic nannies, and it would come as no surprise if it whoops on all other hot hatches/sedans in the same segment. SVT Focus wagon, please.

Chevy is coming out with Cruze SS (2.0L turbo 260 hp). If that thing is anything like Cobalt SS - it's gonna be fast, Focus ST might actually have some competition.

I just placed an order for a guy on a new titaninum focus. Ford picked a bad abbreviation for that trim, on the order sheet system it just uses the first 3 letters.
"Alright sir here is the options you wanted, we have your 12 Focus ***. Oh and the *** handling package! Most guys like that one!"
