    Upper grill looks like a Hyundai. Lower grill and side grills are a lil too big/tall. Tail lights look too big for car size. Sedan tail lights actually look a lil like Nissan's Maxima. But compared to America's previous Focus it's a “winner”.

    “bhicks”, you're an idiot! You wouldn't know a great thing if it hit you in the face! The new Focus is probably the best thing Ford has come up with in years, worldwide. And alongside the new Fiesta, the updated Fusion and even the new Taurus, this is Ford's best offer ever. Honda, Mazda, Hyundai and Toyota should be worried. Very worried.
