For Sale: 2005 Ford Focus ZX3 SES, Duratec (Mazda designed) 2.0L, 5 sp manual, all available factory options (inc Sony audiophile sound, power sunroof) except anti-lock brakes, 97,xxx almost all highway miles (60 miles/day on I-94 as a daily driver). Parked every winter, cleanest used car you will ever see, people still think it's new. 50 year old original owner, non-smoker.
 
Engine: Marcy cold air intake, Crane Stg 1 (mild) cams, Focus Sport 89 and 91 octane tunes + stock (comes with SCT tuner to change), Borla cat-back exhaust, F2 Header w/ high flow metal matrix catalytic converter and secondary Borla baffle (sounds good NOT loud). Valves adjusted when cams installed and were re-checked last year, new plugs. This engine does not need any more maintenance than an otherwise stock engine, nor is the durability any less. I've been working on motors my whole life (used to build and race motorcycles) so I know what I'm doing, plus I'm super anal retentive about maintenance so oil changed every 3-4K with Mobil 1 synthetic oil since new.
 
Exterior: Full SVT suspension kit (all new Ford parts), 7x17" Ford racing rally wheels w/ Coni ExtremeContact DW tires (tread depth 7/32", new is 10/32"), crossbar thing across front struts, factory painted S1 rear spoiler, hawk front brake pads with new rotors installed last year.
 
Interior: Red/Black neoprene front seat covers, billet alum pedals and control knobs, ST leather shifter, black leather shift and e-brake boots w/ red stitching.
 
VERY clean car, has the usual rock chips in hood and a few repaired chips in windshield from those damn gravel trucks. One small quarter sized dent of top of right front fender from a cooler that fell off a shelf. The seat covers are faded on sides but still in good condition (the seats underneath are perfect), and the floor mat has a small worn heal spot. That's about it, everything else is perfect. Needs nothing, drives very tight, everything works like new, no rattles, squeaks, stains, etc. Service manual and all notes included. Stock parts are also available inc 16" wheels with useable tires (included with buy it now price only). This car is a lot of fun to drive and out runs SVTs. Clean title.
 
KBB/NADA retail is $6200 and I have ~ $4K in mods. Local pickup only. Happy bidding.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014



The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
