 Least favorite feature:

Noisy at highway speeds on rough roads or windy days

 Advice to buyer:

Drive the vehicle. It might not be for you, but I found it very good for its class.

 Detailed review:

I absolutely love my Focus. I'm a high mileage commuter and now have about 20k on the car in under a year. Not a single problem or unexpected wear. The handling is spectacular. Road noise is a little loud, but not obnoxious. I bought this car over a Civic, Corolla and Cobalt. The Focus was better than the Corolla and Cobalt and while trailing the new Civic in overall package, the Civic was not so good that I would have paid nearly $5k more for it.

 Also considered:

2006 Honda Civic
2006 Toyota Corolla
2006 Chevrolet Cobalt

 Vehicle purchased:

2006 Ford Focus
