The Focus grew on us in the week it was part of our test fleet. Its engine was perky. The manual gearbox let us explore the drivetrain's potential. The suspension and Firehawk tires provided a taut but comfortable ride. The car's curves-and-angles styling is appealing, inside and out. We just hope that buyers will focus on safety as well as the more fashionable features when they order their options. (www.fordvehicles.com)
