In Frankfurt today, Ford announced yet another <em>good </em>car...the Euro Ford Focus....and you guessed it, they won't be selling them in the US.

<!--more-->
It can be fitted with either a 1.6L diesel making 107hp or a 2.0L diesel making 134hp. It's not the most powerful car but it is fuel efficient and check this out - it's also available with a new Getrag sourced dual clutch transmission (!) Not only that, but it features other niceties such as fiber optic LED rear lights, tire pressure monitoring, USB audio connections, and a capless refueling system.

But no, we won't be able to get it. Because what we have is better...right?

This is really weird. Its almost as if they have something against their US customers. Interesting :sad:
