RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - oldeguy - 07-12-2012 2012 ford focus se with sports appearance package, MT RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - OAC_Sparky - 07-12-2012 You could probably pick up a decently optioned new Fusion or a well-equipped used one for $20G. For $30 you're looking at SEL AWD RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - Chromey - 07-12-2012 Do any of the Fusion V6 come in a MT? ALso, I should say, The Wife wont let me Do much for upgrades... So it needs to be well rounded. re. Upgrade= After market parts.

No they never did ... and I'm pretty sure even the 4-cyl Fusion come only with slushbox for the past couple of years. My experience on the track at Mosport with the 2012 Focus SE with sport package was really enlightening - I had 8 30 minute sessions over a Sat and Sun. Frankly it handled great (almost as good as my modified '03) and I'm experienced enough now to know the difference, and even the stock brakes were noteworthy, not to mention the stock Continentals (once inflated to 45 psi) were excellent for all season tires. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one and it's hard to imagine how much better the ST is going to be. Take one for a test drive ... the solid feeling, excellent feedback and unruffled finesse you feel at 100 kph is still there at 170+. RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - SL8RZZX3 - 07-12-2012 Does it have to be Ford? I loved my Mazda5 before it got wrote off a couple weeks ago.... 2.3 Duratec w/ 5 speed, handled like a focus but had decent room for the family ( 6 seats or 4 with lots of cargo space!) New ones are 6 speed manual with a 2.5L RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - Chromey - 07-12-2012 (07-12-2012, 09:24 AM)SL8RZZX3 Wrote: Does it have to be Ford? And then i would want to install go fast parts. I just got the go ahead on a 40K$ budget, So with my families discount, I took a New Laramie Longhorn, and the kid side of me wanted, so i tryed a 4 door Rubicon. Both after My discount are below my 40K mark. RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - SL8RZZX3 - 07-12-2012 The mod bug has already sunk its teeth.... No matter what you get there is going to be the need/want for go fast goodies lol Good luck with your shopping! RE: Looking for Something New, Need Help - ANTHONYD - 07-13-2012 Sonata? Nice car!

Wish it could be the Ecoboost, But i cant find the extra$$. Test drive one first, although it is an awesome vehicle ( if I needed one that big, I would have gotten a Flex ), I've read that the brakes aren't the greatest, making stopping distances a little long. I haven't read of anything bad about the 3.5.
