I thought focus was made by mazda in mexico. Could be wrong, I don't pay
much attention to that stuff

The Probe, IIRC, was engineered by Mazda and to my mind wins an award for
a bad car name. Cool car though.
I'm led to believe the Focus is a European design.

The reason that the 124 looks like most modern cars is that every asian
car
built in the past 15-18 years I can think of has essential body style
features copied from the 124 or the 140. The exception is the miata
and
its knock-offs. Many "American" cars follow the same pattern of
following
Mercedes Benz. I put American in quotes because some are aisian
cars. Ford focus and probe come to mind.
