A Focus ... Who Would Have Thought - 2006 Ford Focus
By Becca - July 20 - 4:23 amIt was between the Corolla-S, and a Focus ... and the Focus won my heart. Who would have ever thought a Focus to be worthy of such praise. It is a fun little car to drive around, and compared to my truck I used to have, the gas mileage is awesome!

My Focus - 2006 Ford Focus
By Ron Holmes - December 13 - 10:10 amI have owned a 2003, 2004 and a 2006 Focus. I have enjoyed driving each one. I also own a Ford 500 and it sIts in the garage most of the time. The Focus is a fun car to drive.

Great for parents - 2006 Ford Focus
By shovan A - September 24 - 12:33 amI am a single mom and I was looking for a car that had room plus good mileage. This is a good car because it has fold in seats in the back to put longer stuff in your trunk. The trunk is large too. The seats have anchors for car seats and you can still fold one side or both sides down if you have a rather large item. I love my car.

best car in its class hands down! - 2006 Ford Focus
By shane - September 6 - 6:06 pmI have a 06 Ford Focus ZX4 SES. I just have to say that this is the best car in its price range. I love everything about it. I got this car as a early high school graduation present. This car rocks.

2006 Focus SES review - 2006 Ford Focus
By Mark - July 20 - 7:56 amMy wife and I just picked up our 2006 Focus SES, and love it! How can you beat all the rebates Ford has put out there. Car is very sporty, handles great, and is good on gas. We looked at a Saturn, and a Cobalt but went with the Focus. We plan on having this car for a very long time, and the Ford extended warranty will surely help us achieve that.

fun spirited small American car - 2006 Ford Focus
By Jeff - June 12 - 8:20 pmThe automatic transmission has perfect shift points and quick response from throttle input. The steering feels nimble with good road feel. The ride is firm, but not harsh. No squeaks, rattles or wind noise heard so far. Fit and finish are above average. The seats could use a little more support for lower thighs.The SES model seems to be well worth the extra cost over base models.

Ford Focus 06 - 2006 Ford Focus
By Bill Stipek - October 12 - 7:26 amSince I have purchased my 06Ford Focus SE 4 door I have been pleasantly surprised by its good all around quality. For example, its ride is comparable to a standard size sedan with excellent acceleration and fuel economy in this automatic transmission version.

One great car.... - 2006 Ford Focus
By Tom - July 13 - 6:06 amThis is a sporty small car that feels much larger than it is. Roomy inside, comfortable and convenient.

MUST test drive this car to believe it! - 2006 Ford Focus
By Ron - June 27 - 4:53 pmI was looking for a personal car to zip around in that was cheap on gas. I settled for a 2006 Toyota Corolla with sunroof, but due to a shortage, car was not to be delivered for 3 weeks! For the fun of it, I visited a Ford dealer and checked out the Focus. For less money, I got a boat load of options not planned for the Corolla. After a test drive, there was no turning back. Seats are much more comfortable and overall the car is much more fun to drive. I never thought I would buy a Ford, but so far I love the car + highly recommend you test drive one!
