Just what we need in this country - produced in this country - an up-market small car. The only reason this one isn't here is the failed (as in lack of) product plans of Billy Ford. Now, hopefully, that will change. Of course, you can go to Mazda and get a very nice variant of this same platform - and even more power in MazdaSpeed3 form. It will be interesting to see what happens when the Focus and the Mazda3 get an update in ~2 years... -Jeff DrivingEnthusiast.net
