I currently own a 2016 Ford Focus that I recently purchased, June 2016. The car has a very sporty look on the exterior, which is what pulled me into buying it. The interior has upgraded leather seats with a few extra options such as heated seats, heated wheel, and automatic start. When it comes to the extra options and the look of the car itself, I love it honestly. It gives a sporty look that appeals to me as a young person, without a sports vehicle price. The issues that I have with the vehicle stems from its actual performance. The car jerks, it has a hard time accelerating, the engine is very loud, and I even had the transmission run hot, and I had to turn the car off. The dealer actually told me after I made my purchase that the transmission has a computer inside of it that is suppose to memorize your driving patterns. Had I known that the transmission is mostly computerized, I would have not purchased this vehicle. The transmission is making the car dangerous, and I would not recommend anyone buying this vehicle at all. Compared to the previous Focus I had, the 2011 model, the newer model does not hold up at all as far as performance. The only thing that Ford did correctly was the actual look upgrade that they gave the 2016 Ford Focus.

The 2011 Ford Focus (fully loaded version) has been an amazing vehicle and a total pleasure to drive. In the winter, it is totally reliable in the snow and makes me feel safe driving it (I am a safe driver, so anyone who is not I would assume wont have as great of an experience with the Focus in the snow.) The interior is a beautiful black leather that impresses anyone that enters my car. I always receive compliments regarding the interior of my vehicle, it is a clean cut modern style. The entire car functions beautifully, the bass is phenomenal and the quality of my music in the sound system is equivalent to the sound of a smooth symphony playing. No matter the tune, it always sounds amazing. The car is a beast, it takes quite a bit of force to damage it. I have been rear-ended numerous times without a scratch being left behind. Oddly enough for being such a small car, it has a TON of trunk space. I can fit tons of things back there without having to worry that I wont have enough room. The heat/AC aspect of the car is also awesome, it heats up or cools down to a good temperature within 2-5 minutes of starting it up.
