focus eater?

It's still just a Cobalt

wow, i'm actually impressed

Too bad it's gonna be too pricey and not that popular, considering GM's dropping the platform.
Nice content. And it had better eat a Focus

What a piece. Its gonna be a overpriced rattle turd.
For the same price you could buy one of these GM pieces of shit, I'd much rather have my car.

there can be no arguing with that!

Gee, It's too bad Ford doesn't have a 260 horse 4 banger in house they could stuff in a Focus and stomp the competition with.

yea the mazdaspeed3 must have more engine bay room :p

i've heard the cobalt is actually pretty decent. I mean, its kind of hard to believe seeing as its predecessor was the cavalier (also known as the worst car ever made) but...

I mean, I wouldn't drive one, but I wouldn't burn too much on anyone who did...

Ive driven a few. They felt cheap and shitty.

I've driven a colbolt ss, and it felt just as cheap and shitty as the Focus....but it was faster.

i'd rather get a used evo or sti over that cobalt thingy anyday!!!!!

Ya know, after thinking about, I've got more respect for GM now, they are showing they are not afraid to put a fast motor in a econo box, that may be competitive with their bigger name cars like the Crap-vette.
I don't see Ford doing anything towards performance with the Focus, IMo, cuz it may be too competitive with their Mustang.

Just my take on it....

Unless you move out of this country to another developed nation other than Canada, then you can get a much better Focus.

TBH, I don't see me owning another Focus anyway....
