We really like it! As far a smaller cars go it is certainly one of my favorite out right now. I was really a big supporter of the new Fiesta and Focus design. So it was natural that I would be ok with getting one. I'll have to update my signature.

Even I was really impressed with the features that we got in the car. We like it a lot more than the tech package in our BMW. I'm not crazy about the dashes in new small cars but I've gotten used to it in my Civic. As far as the Focus goes, it has great room, great tech and much higher quality parts than the last Focus or Fusion ever thought of. I had to explain the new automatic transmission to my wife and it has half the power of our 335i but it made a lot more sense right now to have. Taking a lot of financial pressure off of us. I can't say much bad about the Focus right now. Since it's so new I still have to take some time to get used to it. So we will see how things go.

Oh and it's Sterling Grey Metallic, the best color aside from Dark Highland Green.

Looks great. Ford really has elevated the small car to something more than eco-transport.

It's an SEL. It has black leather interior, MyFordTouch. Decent Continental tires! There isn't much to it other than its pretty loaded. No park assist but back up sensors. Rain sensing wipers. Regular key ignition. Silver trim. It's an automatic. My wife loves it and so do I. I can't believe how far small cars have come. The voice recognition is fantastic. Good torque for the most part. Extremely comfortable. We didn't need any of that stuff but it was on the car we wanted. So it was a nice surprise.

Congrats! Love that color. Would be nice to see updates of your ownership experience as I am considering a Focus hatchback for a DD.

Yeah I plan to keep updating. Right now I barely have time behind the wheel. But I still really like it!
