Surely you're not serious?! I think the new Focus is the LEAST bland in the whole category! I mean, look at it in hi-res, artistic shots (http://www.netcarshow.com/ford/2011-focus/)...

I think the interior is way to 'busy'... but I guess for the promo pics you must have everything lit up and visible at the same time to show it off.

Way too many buttons / controls on and behind the steering wheel IMO.

I like the exterior, I see a little Volvo in the headlights (I think??).. But other than that, nice fresh design.

Great power, diesel like economy and the 6 speed auto standard. Very nice package.
