What's not to like? Well, the placement of the passenger power window switch causes the need to move up and forward from the seatback to reach. It's a minor irritation overshadowed by the cars other fine attributes.
After all my scrutinizing I have to say I'm impressed. The Ford Focus is superb, and probably the best small car to ever come from an American manufacturer.
