Do you own the current Ford Focus? My colleague just test-drove the new Ford Focus earlier this morning. He currently owns the Ford Focus TDCI (and Mazda CX5). He is very impressed with the Ford Focus and was contemplating of replacing his Focus TDCI with this new Focus, though he agreed with me that the price is on the high side. Similarly like you, he said the car is very responsive, and there is no lag which is contradictory to what the service adviser told me earlier. He said the car's handling is even better than his Focus TDCI. And also, the car is very quiet.
One remark he made cracks me up. He said he purposely drove into all the potholes to test the car, and he is amazed that the car (and suspension) is very quiet.
If the handling of the new Focus is an improvement over the current mk3 model, tangible differences and not subtle differences, it should be very appealing indeed.
i dont own 1, but my friend do owns 1 2.0 duratec 2014 i think & i drove once.
pros: stiffer suspension, more responsive engine, better handling, no more stupid thumb control powershift, 8" touch display (no more button phobia), 8 parking sensors, no sun roof (no more afraid of rubber leaking), new auto parking assits, new city stop assists
cons: brake too soft, stupid rims design ( i prefer the old ones Y-spoke), no more xenon (it might be a good side cause cheaper) no body kits yet, the leather is ok ok 1, the new blue colour not nice, and they gave the prymacy tyre is noisy although it is not so performance tyre, it would be great if follow fiesta st's conti tyres
this is what i think
