Yea, thats me in your rear view mirror. In my brand new totally baller 2008 Black Focus SES Coupe.
Specs:
-MSRP: $16000 (lulz i dont pay that...~250 a month paid by my dad...he's a ford retiree)
-Engine: 2.0L I-4
-HP: 132 @ 6000 rpm
-Torque: 133 @ 4250 rpm
(it goes faster than you'd think)
-24/35 mpg city/highway
-Pirelli p235 tires
-Black leather interior (the seat is like a fucking office chair)
-Audiophile stereo with 8 inch sub (best that they had, and i'm not allowed to get aftermarket shit on lease cars

)
-Ford sync

Down there at the bottom in front of the transmission is two power outlets, 1 USB, and 1 In-line auxiliary input. I merely plug in my mp3 player and have instant voice activated access to all my music. Also included is bluetooth connectivity which i can voice activate my phone with. All i have to say about sync is...BALLIN'

-The driving experience
Now i've only had the car for say, two hours, but i have made the most of those two hours. Very responsive, accelerates nicely when i need to jump into traffic. Handling is...amazing. Especially in comparison to my old SUV. I can now take turns way faster without fear of spinning out or flipping over. Cant wait for the snow to come. Or to convince my dad to teach me to drift.

Overall happiness with car: really really high
This car has the decaf seal of approval.

Yea my mom has had a focus since 2001 and even exchanged the wrecked one in 2004 for a new one. My friend also recently bought this a few months ago. Really nice car, and I would say the best thing about it is the handling. from driving a shitty van to this thing it makes it seem so freaking easy to drive.

...it's called a lease buddy. My dad can lease a car for 1-2 years, trade it in and get a new one.

I just took it on the high way (on my way home from blockbuster which is like 5 miles away, i actually went out of my way to take the high way home for 2 miles :D) it was fucking fun as shit. Took it through a twisting neighborhood at ~60 as a shortcut (longcut) on my way home. Handles beautifully.
