They gave it the front of the Verve concept but it would have been a much better car if hadnt left the rear unchanged. what were they thinking?? its half a new car.

it's the sportiest version, it's not about practicality.More practical?

i cannot think something about sport in a hatch with so much doors
in defense of my "3 doors opinion" i could say that this would suppose to be my car, so i am not interested if the access to rear places is comfortable, since i'm driving it
btw, i use so rarely rear doors that i nearly forgot their utility
for me it's 3-doors, or a coupe. "life is to short to be practical (and to run on diesel)" HAHAHA...my car (my mother's car) has 5 doors and it's a diesel

yeah the original focus was great. unfortunately ford dont seem to believe in the 'its good so dont change it' philosophy so they've instantly made the first-gen focus a classic. But hey the new focus isnt BAD. its just not a focus in my eyes. Its a bigger car, its basically a mondeo with the ass cut off. Which goes to explain your question earlier. 5 Doors because its like putting 1 window on a plane. The original focus looked sweet in its 3 door edition. The angular windows flowed with the rearlights. The new one however looks exactly the same with or without 5 doors so you may aswell save the hassle for the backseat passengers in this case and get 5 doors. If you want a nifty 3 door ford, you get a Fiesta ST. Or if you really do want the fastest careless Focus then you wait for the RS and that deserves 3 doors no matter what.

holy words, i am pretty interested in the RS, even i am not going to buy it
even if the car's shape is the same in 3 or 5 doors configuration, my argument is something about "ideals", it's not simply aesthetics. a lot of people buy 5 doors hatch even if they don't need them.
