Ford Focus 2009Looking for the perfect compact car with excellent performance and driving dynamics?

The European-inspired suspension of the 2008 Ford Focus not only provides great fuel economy to fight the rising gas prices, but also really delivers driving excellence at the same time.

Big Options in a Small Package

The 2008 Ford Focus competes with the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Chevy Cobalt, offering big options in a small package. Any vehicle that gets about 35 mpg is in high demand these days, and the competition is stiff. The 2008 Ford Focus offers not only excellent gas mileage, but style, comfort and performance, too.

Choose from a sporty two-door option or a classic four-door sedan style. Both styles offer integrated headlamps, two bar chrome grille, and flared wheel arches. The interior has patented Ice Blue backlighting for increased safety and comfort when viewing the instrument panel and an updated, ergonomically-designed dash to keep everything important in your line of vision and at your fingertips.

Innovative Technology

The latest innovative technological advances, like the SYNC voice integrated in car communication system for Bluetooth and MP3 compatibility (factory installed, and currently exclusive to Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles) allows you to sync your phone with your car. See who’s calling and stay safe without taking your eyes off of the road.

The 2.0L Duratec 16-valve I4 four cylinder engine is perfect for the 5-speed manual transmission. With some of the lowest emissions rates in the industry, the 2008 Ford Focus actually rivals some of the hybrids currently on the market.

Safety & Improved Handling

As always, safety is a critical component for any Ford vehicle. The 2008 Ford Focus offers not only side airbags but side curtain airbags to protect the driver and passengers from injury during a crash. A 5 star crash rating has been earned again this year.

Steering and handling are more responsive than ever, with a retuned suspension and stiffer body design. Don’t worry about how you will handle those tight turns, the 2008 Ford Focus delivers some of the best handling around.

Safety features include the standard airbags, and additional optional Traction Control, which allows you to grip the road tight in any inclement weather conditions. Another standard feature is the tire pressure monitoring system, keeping you alerted to when your tires need air, and preventing any disaster from blowouts on the road.

Mood Music?

For fun and extra styling, the interior lighting can be adjusted according to your daily mood. With seven different colors to choose from, you can pick one color for every day of the week to highlight your night. Don’t forget the optional SIRIUS radio, to keep your music nearby wherever you go.

Once you drive it, you’ll know for sure that this is the best vehicle you can find for comfort, safety, handling, style, and price with its smooth and responsive performance, high safety rating, and low sticker price.
