What car would you get if you had to replace your Focus tomorrow

And cant buy another Focus.

Id probably get a used 00-05 Impala.

Ive already had a Civic so I dont want another one of those, dont like the Corolla, Mazda3 might be nice but I like the US cars now.

So just wondering what else you Focus guys like realistically if you had to get something else.

I'd probably get a Jeep Wrangler that's a couple years old or if I still wanted to keep fuel economy I'd look at a Fiesta and put the spec suspension kit on it.

You got the right idea. I'd get a Scion FR-S also, or of course the Subaru BRZ.

+1 Was seriously interested in one until I realized they would be just too far out of my price range. If I had to replace it with a similar vehicle/price point I would probably go looking for a good deal on a Mitsubishi Lancer six speed or another Toyota Corolla. No disrespect to the Focus, just would want something different.

Scion FR-S, if practicality weren't a concern. Hell, whatever, practicality be damned.
