Buy 2014 Ford Focus Titanium or wait for the 2015?

My lease is up on December 5th. I gave a 2012 Mazda3. Looking to get something different. I'm considering the Ford Focus Titanium. I noticed the 2015 are redesigned but aren't out yet. The Ford sales guys are really pushing the 14's…

Is it worth waiting and probably paying more for a 2015? I'm also considering looking at Kia's as well (forte). I'm looking for something compact that is some what fun to drive.

The 2015 update to the Focus is mostly cosmetic (to the front end styling in particular, which will have a look very similar to the current Fusion's front end styling). There aren't any major platform changes, powertrain advancements etc., planned for the '15 Focus as compared to the '14.

Whether it's worth waiting and paying more to have the newest looking Focus instead of the '14 is entirely up to you, but if you're waiting in hopes of the '15 Focus being better or significantly different to drive then you'd probably be just as happy with the '14 model.

Check out the links below to compare both of the models side by side, and see which perks are the most appealing:

The 2015 Focus takes on a striking new look, inside and out. It also has new lineup of available seats, which is plenty to be excited about!

I recommend going to your local Ford Dealer and taking a 2014 Focus Titanium for a test drive. Get a feel for it, compare what you've learned on the links I provided to you, and then work towards making a decision.

Whatever you decide, it's a win-win situation.
