Grrrrr

 

[Turkish]

both focuses look equally fugly

 

[BornStar]

The American one looks like a 4 door Civic from the back. They really didn't change it much though.

I was scrolling through the European pictures and was like "that's funny, that looks like a Volvo." Apparently it actually was.

 

[BCYL]

The Mazda 3 still look WAY better though

 

[The Stigenator]

i hate the new interior, its been americanised..

worse yet, its got the mondeo headlights..

Atleast they kept the body of the sedan, i like that body style, has a european flair to it.

Something has to be done for that god ugly dash. I prefer the one on my car (execpt maybe that I would have preferred the cigerrate lighter socket be flush and not resessed.

 

[StageLeft]

Back looks much better. Front still looks very fruity.

 

[CraigRT]

the silver ZX4 looks decent, IMO
the european thing looks... meh.

The US one looks more escort then it did before.

Of course

 

[TheAudit]

Never liked the Focus anyway.

 

[dirtboy]

The Euro Focus looks a little VWish. Looks good. Too bad we don't get it.

 

[JBT]

I think the new Focus looks MUCH better though it sill looks like crap so before it looked like crap².

 

[pecel]

Ford is FUGLY

Why are you growling...would you really want to buy a Ford Focus even if it was new from the ground up? I doubt it

 

[Vortex22]

Jetta?

Oh, never mind... fugly

 

[conjur]

That's about the blandest interior I've ever seen! Even worse than a Camry!

 

[amnesiac]

It's not so much fugly as it is just so.......generic.

90% of domestic cars have absolutely no personality whatsoever. They're just boring.

 

[EvilYoda]

I guess the backside looks better, but I agree that it looks like a Civic...and YUM, Mazda 3.

And in other automotive news, I saw a wrapped-up 300C on my way home just now

 

[WinkOsmosis]

I like that Volvo.

 

[Captain4]

Gotta go where the demand is. I think I saw more Ford Focuses (Foci?) and Ford Kas in Rome than I did Fiats.

The Volvo doesn't look better, the 3s is where it's at. This is my current background:

European Spec Mazda 3s

A Volvo 220hp ... wtf, 5cyl? Sounds like another quality Volvo product right there ...

And besides, there's apparently a Mazdaspeed 3 in the works, based off the 2.3L GT engine.
