 I have owned many cars and this is my favorite of all time.  In the past 3 years I've owned over $100K in new cars and none of them pleased me like my Focus does.  I went from a 2009 Honda Accord Coupe V6 and 2008 Honda Civic Si before that, to this car and could not possibly be happier.  It does not rattle at all, unlike junk Hondas, and gets killer gas mileage.  It rides like a bigger car than it is, which is awesome on city streets when you're hitting potholes and cracks.  I hear no road noise.  It is very, very quiet even with the "sport" muffler on the 5 speed coupe.  SYNC blows away the Bluetooth in any vehicle I've owned.  I cannot say enough about how good of a car this is. Bye Honda
