General Comments:
The 2008 Focus SES is a wonderful car! The heated leather seats are nice and comfy! And the 500 watt Audiophile stereo sounds like a concert hall!
The fit and finish of the SES Focus is great! No squeaks rattles or bangs!
The 5 speed transmission was ordered for my car, as the fully loaded SES model comes with a automatic, however I am glad to have the manual transmission; it makes the Focus a fun car to drive!
The fuel mileage I have been getting surpasses the rating on the car. I have been getting 38-49 MPG! I recommend this auto 100%
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

To comment 05:46: The check engine lights on Fords are VERY sensitive and come on for all sorts of reasons. I've had one Ford that craved a tank of premium every once in a while and the light would come on. One tank of premium would turn it off for months. Hopefully it was your dealer who diagnosed your problem and it will be quickly fixed.
We bought a 2001 Focus ZX-3 new and it was an absolutely incredible car. Great power, sporty handling and never a single problem the whole time we owned it. The newer ones are even better.

Update on my 2008 Ford Focus "SES": Today, my check engine light came on. I ran a code check and it seems my fuel level sensor in the gas tank is no longer working! The car has 2100 miles on it.
