Julie and I (mostly Julie) bought a 2005 Ford Focus on Monday. We got a hell of a deal. ZX3, only option is AC. We test drove an assload of different cars before driving through North Carolina on our way to Edisto for vacation and buying the last 5 speed focus on the lot. It was ~10,500 before trade and additions, and we went ahead and bought an extended bumper to bumper, gap protection (because resale values suck), and two years free maintenance.
I really like it.

the 1st? maybe, yes.
the 2nd and 3rd? nope, that's what an s2k with 100k miles goes for. i'd much rather place my 14k in a 100k mile s2k than a 50k mile svt focus.
