  I am in a dilema of whether buying a Ford Focus 1.6 or a Mit Lancer CVT 1.6 sports model. Anyone have any idea about their fuel comsumption and reliability. Also anyone know of the website for focus club singapore. Thanks.

  buying a car depend on your interest, all i can advise you is to study on these two car, whether is brochuse or go their wedsite see....
  
  if for me, i will take japan car... due to their lasting.... how should i phase... i not sure how many ppl agree but if buying second hand car or COE car, japanese car will be more lasting and need less maintain than other...

  The problem is I heard Lancer CVT has very high fuel consumption and not durable..I sometimes need to deliver heavy stuffs and I am worry that the suspension cannot take it.
  
  As for Ford Focus..so far I have got positive feedback but because it's a continental car so the value might not be high when I am selling it in a few years time.
  
  Any comments guys?
