Saw an ad in the Toronto Sun today listing as a "door crasher special" a 3dr SVT Focus for $11,888 for sale at Yonge Steeles Ford Lincoln.
The rims weren't stock SVT as far as I could tell from the photo and the car looked to be white.
Any idea if you know who owned this one? (I'm figuring high high miles on it at that price, or a lemon)

Well, I took a look at the car after work and it is actually black!! It has the standard 5 spoke SVT wheels, red insert on black leather seats, sunroof, audiofile, etc.
It had a few dings and scatches (really noticeable on black) and a scrape on the rear bumper (same place as mine) with a slight crack on the bumber cover.
It must have just come in from a trade in since it was not detailed yet and I am pretty sure that I was the first one to drive it since the brakes had that parked outside overnight in the rain rust look to them.
It drove smooth enough although the front suspension sounded clunky over the bumps.
It has 123000 km, 40000 km more than my 2 year older car!
