    The odometer has been reset, so no luck there and it does run but has a dead battery... In my previous post I explained more about the vehicle. Previous owners just beat on it real hard.

    Here's the new Focus, which will not be released in the US. Any thoughts so far?

    I actually sometimes get stuff like that for free as my family has bought over 10 cars from our usual dealership

    It does look like the 2017 Fiesta's brother, which explains the design.

    The front is a bit odd but I quite like the look of the rear.

    Might be because of the Fiesta design cues.

    In fact, it's following that direction of the Fiesta also by not being sold here.

    I get it now. They're still going to be available in the US, just not made here. I remember now because Trump made a big deal out of Ford's decision to move their production to plants outside the US, and that lead to I believe the CEO revealing the return of the Bronco.

    I guess that makes sense, considering that the Ranger and Bronco is coming.

    It's also supposed to compete with the Auris/Corolla Hatchback coming the same year.

    Headlights look like a mix between the new merc headlights and the Volvo Thor’s hammer lights. Not sure they fit the car super well but I like the idea.

    Front is almost as angular as the Veloster N, but not as clean.

    It might also be taking the idea of LED headlights from companies like Acura.

    Rear end also looks a bit a Ferrari FF.

    With the flairs over the rear end and angled window.

    The new Focus looks like a Hyundai and a Chevy Spark got drunk and made a weird offspring that Ford adopted.

    and this

    Speaking of the Spark...

    Looks like an child from the Spark and SS. (The grille suggests SS-styling, even though the SS died already.)
