This Year's Model Updates:

Changes are minimal on the 2007 Ford Focus. All CD players are now MP3-compatible, and models with the optional CD changer automatically get audio controls on the steering wheel. Optional on SE and SES trim levels is a new interior upgrade package with two-tone leather seats and satin metallic interior trim. You can also get the leather seats as a stand-alone extra. Additionally, the ST sedan and all SE and SES sedans and hatchbacks are eligible for the Street Appearance Package, which provides special exterior trim and a polished exhaust outlet. Powertrain warranty coverage is extended to 5 years/100,000 miles as of July 2006.

Pros:
  • Plush ride quality, responsive steering, comfortable seats front and rear, simple controls, four body styles to choose from.
Cons:
  • Sloppy fit and finish, low-grade plastic trim in cabin, inadequate storage and cupholders, no rear head restraints or side curtain airbags, 2.3-liter engine limited to ST sedan.

  • perille tires - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    we leased a 2007 ford focus and returned it 2 weeks ago to purchase a 2009tord fusion. To our shock, we recd a bill from FMC stating we owe$600.00 for overuse of the perille tires. We have always leased, and never have we recd a bill for anything.,called other ford motor dealers and they stated the perille tires are only warranted for 1 yr..why is FMC putting tires on cars that they know in advance will not hold up.,we turned the car inw/31,000 miles, perille tire is suppose to be good for 40.000 miles. FMC is really shooting themselves in the foot because if we are forced to pay this, it will be the last ford we ever buy. what an insult to the consumer. tires were noisy & poor traction.

  • Love this car! - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    Over all, this is the best car I ever owned once the back seats are folded, the trunk is so big, people dont believe what I put in it. I need space in the back and this car is perfect. I plan to keep it for a long time.

    Smaller on the outside, yet bigger on the inside compared to other cars in this category, both domestic and foreign. With a few options, this car gave me all I needed, at a very low price. I like the fact that a low mileage lease was offered.

  • Too Awesome of a car! TOTALLY WORTH IT! - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    I wrote a review on here not too long ago and I have read some of the reviews on here. Im sorry to hear that some people had problems with Pirelli tires. I didnt have to replace 2 of them until I was just over 45,000 miles on my car, and thats after my driving like a bat out of hell . Besides regular maintenance, I only had to replace a tail light bulb. The performance of the car is awesome- I can outrun many cars when I need to! Its always fun to drive, especially fast! With all of this, Im getting on average 30 to 32mpg and when I chill out from going fast I get as much as 38mpg. Totally worth the purchase! Im not planning to buy another car anytime soon. I made a great choice.

  • A SPECIAL CAR - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    Ford did a good thing with the ST. It handles like a dream and is fun to drive. My wife and I love it! Too bad Ford stopped the ST. It has been good on fuel with a high of 37 Hwy and averaging 28-30 in town. This car eats the mountain roads in Arizona and is a real road car! We are in our 60s and would like to see Ford do something with the new Focus, turbo, etc. Just because you are a senior doesnt mean the younger generation are the only ones to have fun driving! Bring it on, Ford!! Well be looking (and hoping).

  • Happy with my Focus - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    This is my second Focus, and about the 10th Ford Ive owned. The vehicle has great reliability, I do all highway driving and have averaged about 31.5 MPG. Its not as good as my old Mazda GLC (averaged 51 MPG) I had in college, but for a commuter vehicle its pretty good. I intend to give it to my 14 y.o. as his car when he is ready.

  • Best of the Best - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    3rd one. Have rented a variety of vehicles for our trips. Drove my 1st Focus and said “I want this this car”. Brought one in 1998, then in 2000 (had over 200,000 miles w/no problems) and then traded it in for my third one. Travel about 120 miles a day and just thought it was time, each was an exceptional car. For a compact car it’s versatility is good, plently of room, especially head room. I recomend this car for fuel efficency, good city MPG/very good hwy MPG, has good accelertion. Nice riding car and very comfortable on trips. It’s underpriced considering its quality and reliablity. It’s everything I needed and more. When I’m ready to trade-in for a new vehicle, it will be another Focus!

    Just got the Ford Focus SE 5 door. So far I like it. The gas millage is great. The Focus seems to handle very well.

  • I hate this car! - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    i have had this car almost two years and have had nothing but problems with it. Within 5 months new brakes and rotors. Dash panel lights have gone out three times. Now battery and alternator problems. Not only that in the last year I have had to replace the tires and rims! And they need to be done again. I will never own a Focus again. Not good for car seats or tall people.

  • Value, Value, Value! - 2007 Ford Focus
    By -

    When I test drove my Focus, I really wasnt planning on buying it. I was going to keep looking at the Dodge Stratus and Hondas because I didnt think a Focus would be big enough for me. Im 62" 235lbs and have drove full size trucks all my life. After the test drive I was ready to make a deal. This car is a great car for the price. My first 2 tanks of gas averaged 34.5MPG. The car has good power and is very nimble. I would encourage you to choose a Focus over a Civic or Corrolla. For the price, you just cant beat a Focus.
