Bigger is not more or better! Thus, bigger cars for their money just means more metal...nothing more. You should see the cars in Europe, John. you would understand what we are talking about.

The cars in Europe are, and it is somewhat unfortunately for the US, much better made! Much more solid and well finished. For example, the Focus in Europe is BEAUTIFUL and looks like a classy car. The Focus in the US can look cheap and the inside finish is cheaply done in comparison to Europe. Sometimes I feel the cars in Europe are safer as well. My Focus station wagon in the US has NO head rests for the back passengers. It does in Europe. The seats are MUCH more comfortable than in the US, and pretty much aergonomically correct. The cloth is of high quality, unlike the cloth in the US. I certainly don't want to bash the Focus here in the US, however, it is something that Ford should be aware that customers are aware. Some of the really nice cars iin Europe are the Mondeo and the Scorpio. Beautiful.

I think that the new Ford design is a piece of art in all of the new model. If the prototipe Iosis Max ever came to production ( i hope so ) I give the C-Max to my wife and buythe Iosis to me. Is the Iosis ever gone be produced ? Keep the good work. I whont to be the first portuguese to have one. I think that the new Ford design is a piece of art in all of the new model.

I need a microvan soon! The only available option in the US is the Mazda5. The C-Max looks to offer more. And I'd love to buy a Ford, but, simply put, I can't wait a year and a half. Late 2011?

She has to pick up groceries and carry a stroller besides the kids. Also if they ever get a break and can take a vacation they need a little space to put the luggage, cooler, tent, and anything else needed for a 4 hr. drive. Smaller works if it's just you but if you have a family and actually carry anyting other thatn the people in it it doesn't. Small only works for short city drives and not everyone lives in the city. You comments were rude and condescending about people that aren't like you, especially those over 30. your generation. Walk in other peoples shoes.

I used to live in Europe and found it funny seeing some big guy crammed in some tiny car. Same with small houses with no backyards that they have in Europe. Cost is the main answer. People in Europe couldn't afford the big cars we drive here, but if an American sized car was offiered at the same price as a European car, then it would be bought in a second by the Europeans. We have cheap gas, cheap insurance, and low taxes (all compared to Europe), so that's why we buy what we buy.

Not just boring silver white black red blue & gray. The poor color selection is why I didn't buy a new Focus. And get this: your color choices narrow down if you want a higher-end Focus with leather and sunroof. You can only choose from four colors when you're paying more!!!! Insane marketing decisions.
