What are your priorities? The difference in price is a lot more substantial if you don't load up the SE.

Bear in mind also that dealers can no longer order 07 Focus ... you will be able to select only from what's in stock or what's in the dealer pipeline and your available choice gets smaller every day.

SE Sedan GFX no options = 16,701 incl. air tax and delivery
ST no options = 19,583 incl. air tax and delivery

Diff = 2,882 or $50 per month for 60 months.

Also: 0% financing is only up to 36 months - 60 month = 1.9%

If I was in the sedan market, personally I'd go for the ST ... for the 2.3, the better suspension, the Canadian Winter Package plus, the nicer trim, the power options, and IMO the rear spoiler is a lot nicer. The availability of leather and moonroof also floats my boat.

If it's the GFX look you're going for and you'll be putting 17s on and payments are a consideration - the SE would probably be the way to go; however ... loading up an SE makes no sense IMO - if you want the goodies go with the ST.

And BTW ... be prepared for the possibility that you owe more on your ZTS than what it's worth ... unfortunately even after 36 months this could still be possible.

i went to the site and did the quote thingy with all the options set,

the SE with GFX came out to about 20k
the ST came out to about 21k

what i want is the GFX on the car so i guess if i buy the ST and then want GFX on it, it'll cost me more than 21k right?

What would you recommend?  The SE has much better fuel economy.  I'll be getting my own 17" inch wheels to replace the 15" stock on SE models.


My 04 zts is still under financing (60 month but only 24 month is left on it).  It's got just under 62k and accident free.   I think selling private is the best way to go here.
