Well I went into Stockfish Ford today and talked to them about the 2001 Focus LX. We wheeled and dealed and I managed to get it for 6885.80 after tax with a 3 year/60,000 Ford complete Care warranty. Well on wednesday next week I will be taking the focus out for a rip to see if I like it...if all goes good then I am buyin the car.
I won't beable to take ownership of the Focus until next saturday as they want to do a 181 point inspection, clean it up and probably spray it with that new car smell stuff.
Once I get it I will snap some pics of it and post them on the picture forum. I know the SPI is not a performer...but that MPG in car and driver is givin me a serious chub...remember I drive a Ford Tempo with an auto 3spd tranny and at 100kmph I am sitting at 3500rpm...so the 33mpg in town and 40mpg highway will be a welcomed change to my 14mpg town, 9mpg highway...
