The car has gotten plenty of accolades from car magazines. I've always liked the inherent goodness of the basic Focus design -- lots of room, great suspension, hatchback versatility, even if the look is a little weird. The addition of about 50 horsepower makes it a world-class hot hatch, on par with the Golf GTI and Civic Si. Check out the January Automobile, which has a detailed review of hot econoboxes (including the SVT, GTI, Mazda MP3 and Sentra).
The Focus represents one of the few bright spots for American car manufacturers -- along with the Corvette and Cadillac's recent resurgence. Well designed, well-thought-out econocar that blows away any competing GM product and which is a class leader even among the Japanese econocars. In SVT trim the car is a serious ass kicker.
Do it.
All that for under 20 grand?
