Yes, it's one of the most reliable domestic cars ever.

I just bought one in April. It is okay. The gas mileage is good and I love the Microsoft Sync technology. I bought the SES model, but I wish I would have
paid more for the SEL model with the chrome exteriors and heated seats. For the price it is a good car. I wanted a Nissan Sentra, but they are expensive and
a small part of me wanted to buy American.

The Nissan Versa is a good car and cute.

Get a Honda, those and Toyotas are supposedly the best. But hondas are cheaper.

Nothing beats my M3. Well, other than my Lambo.

My mom has one (this is her second one) and she loves it. Great gas mileage and affordable. The Ford Fusion is another good one, too.

Ford Focuses always get good reviews in Consumers Reports.

I got one when I needed a rental last year. I wasn't exactly thrilled about it at first, but I was almost sad to give it back. It was a great little car,
handled well and drove smoothly. I prefered it to the POS PT Cruiser I was recently given for a rental. Couldn't give that back fast enough.

The Ford Focus is a good car. I would stick to a 2003 or newer model though.

I have the 2008 Focus, and I love it. I already paid it off, and I've never had any troubles with it either.

I drive one. It was small, cheap and easy to drive, which were really my only requirements. It's certainly not going to impress anybody, but it's a
solid car.
It gets great mileage, too. I don't know if you have a long commute, but that's important to me. |

I would go for a Honda or Toyota because the resale value is the highest you will find. Also, they've been noted as being the most reliable cars. But
that's just me, I'm sure the Focus is fine.
