I think it has the potential to be the best fwd offering in the price range if you need sporty/practical. But if they made an AWD model i'd cream in

AWD would have been an awesome addition.

We need something that will carry the torch for the EVO. And this platform has serious potential. I test drove a focus SE with my wife and its a great handler with a beautifully tight turning radius. I came off mpressed. She liked it a lot but preferred the roominess of the altima, and the altima feels more powerful. But handling was a delighful surprise for an FWD, I don't think this car will be a bad pick. But AWD rocks on the enthusiast side.
