Ford Focus......Very good steering and handling, it has always been Ford's best all-around car, and the best small car America has ever produced in my opinion. The Cavalier and Neon were crap in comparison.

I've had several as rentals (I got stuck with like 10 in a row at one point ). I agree it's a pretty decent car for what it is (one of the most boring cars on the planet) but it had acceptable power and was middle of the road for comfort.

I just had to make sure I did not pay close attention to the interior. |

I had one of those too. Slow, got blown around by the wind, and the suspension crab-legged over bumps. Throttle spring too stiff. Decent interior though. I actually liked the windows because when you rolled them up they clunked into place real solid because they're so square. Also the shifter was beef.

No kidding. The shifter lever handle was like 9" wide and the size of a pork loin. What hamfisted cromag is THAT designed for?
