Finally had it with the dumpy ass Intrepid and after some mechanical things went bad on it we decided to trade it in. All in all we got a smokin deal on the car, and Im in love with it. Thing rides wicked nice, handles good, and the interior is tits, and has a 8 speaker system with a 8" factory woofer. Its a 2010 Focus Ses.

								<b>[<i>Jalopnik</i>'s Worst10 Cars Of The Decade](http://jalopnik.com/5425680/jalopniks-worst10-cars-of-the-decade/gallery/)</b>

```

**Ford Focus**

**Years Produced:** 2005 - Present

**Current Base Price:** $15,995

**Current Engine:** 2.0-liter I-4, 143 hp

**Why It Makes The List:** You’ll notice that we’ve only included the '05-and-up Focus in this list. There’s a reason for that: When Ford’s most successful “world” car debuted in 1999, it was actually pretty good. Wait, no, strike that — it was _really_ good. A set of bumpers and some suspension tuning was all that separated the U.S. Focus from the rest-of-the-world model, and we were better off for it; the first generation of Ford’s iconic small car was fuel-friendly, a snappy handler, and a damn good imitation of a European hot hatch.  
Naturally, things went downhill from there. Weight-adding features were piled on, steering feel and suspension went lame, and the once-edgy styling was given a Debbie Downer makeover. In 2007, rather than bring the killer second-gen European Focus here, Ford decided to reskin and plump out the first-gen car. Huge injustice; sad — and uncompetitive — car. (Naturally, because this is America, it continued to sell well.)

**Drives Like:** Joan Rivers.

**Best Quality:** Clutch and throttle calibration are quite nice. (Really!)

:lol

But congrats! :shifty

Extremely :lol

Im sure the base model that doesnt have a rear sway&package handles a little goofy, but this thing is pretty impressive even with the 4X4 status!
