What is this very wonderful quick-clear windscreen? of which you speak.
Something classy in windscreen wipers or ____ other?

PS: I liked the [US-version SE] Focus best of these two, plus Honda Fit tried out; VW got a FAIL on (petrol) mileage, while the bitchin TDI was $outta-sight. Alas the extra ~ $2K-USD rendered the Focus just over the line for ROI.

I agreed with [ was it Car & Driver? ] reviewer's assessment of the top-line Focus Titanium: best handling of any US competitors in the niche, plus decent build quality. (Noted there too: the poshed-down suspension alterations for soft-butted Muricans ... were minimal, compared with Euro: a mere tire swap would get 'excellent' rating on the twisties.) Loved the brakes' action/feel. And the lo-speed torque (more cc.s than the teensy Fiesta.) 6-speed 2-clutch automatics rock, in either.

The super-diesel isn't on US Ford's marketing agenda [yet], but then---it would have broken the bank anyway. Seems unlikely they'll add it unless people with pitchforks descend on the CIEIO's household (whichever one, in a given month.)

Happy hooning! ;^> (OK, that's a joke @ 90PS.)
