Your planning on getting 14,000 from a dealer? Not a chance..honestly I bought my car in 2001, then in 2002 I saw the SVT focus and wanted to trade it in. I had 17000km on my car. I went to 3 different dealers, all very far away from each other due to the limited svt dealers and they all offered me less than 10000 for my car.
Honestly if you want 14k for your car, you should try and buy a fully loaded explorer or something thats over 50k itself and you might get a good tradein value. But on a 24000 dollar car their not going to give you that much for it. Your best bet is to stick it out another 1 or 2 years, go to the dealer now and see how much they offer you for your car. Got back next year..the price will be about the same even though your car is worth less.....
The 05 ST also only comes in manual as far as I remember. If you've got 8k to drop on the focus why not drop in a charger (super or turbo) and buy a lentech.
