2005 Ford Focus Zx3 Ses - 115k Miles, Orange, Great Shape, Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Woodstock, Illinois, United States
|
I am selling my 2005 Ford Focus ZX3 SES hatchback. I have owned this car for the last 6 years and it has been a daily driver for me. When I got the car, it had 54,000 miles on it. I have never had any issues with this car, I have only had to do normal stuff i.e. tires, battery etc. I would not hesitate driving this car anywhere in the country. I have been using it to make my daily 85 mile round trip commute. I decided I needed four wheel drive because of all of the drifting I deal with on country roads, so it's time to sell the Focus...
The Good Mechanically excellent condition, never had an issue with anything Brand new battery in September 2013 Upgraded Kenwood stereo with USB input and iPod connectivity and control Upgraded speakers 30+ miles per gallon on the highway Manual transmission shifts as smoothly as the day I bought it Starts right up every time Power Mirrors Power Door Locks Remote keyless entry Regular oil changes every 5,000 miles(I have been running synthetic since I bought it) I have 3 keys and 2 remotes(only one has ever been used by me) Sunroof operates just as it should The Not-So-Good There is a dent in the rear passenger side quarter panel about the size of a soft ball, right on the corner The front tires only have about 30% left, rear tires are better There is a small 1/4" size hole in the back seat During the recent cold snap I accidentally broke off the antenna. Not hard to replace. Brakes were replaced at 80,000 miles so they will probably be due soon Very minor rust under the wheel wells, not visible That's about all I can think of. If you have any questions or would like to take a test drive, send me a message and I will accommodate. I have the car listed under KBB value. This car will be a great vehicle for someone looking for a very fuel efficient, fun to drive, good sounding car. I have enjoyed it over the last 6 years and hopefully someone else can enjoy it for at least 6 more. Thanks for looking. |

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
1964 Ford GT40 prototype to be auctioned in April
Wed, 12 Mar 2014The Ford GT40 owns a firm spot on the list of the greatest American racecars ever made, being the first car from the United States to take an overall win in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. And now Mecum will auction what it claims is second-oldest GT40 still in existence at its Houston sale on April 12.
The story of the GT40 is fascinating. Henry Ford II attempted to buy Ferrari in the early '60s, but Enzo refused. Ford decided if he couldn't have them, then he would beat the Prancing Horse on the track. Ford went to Carroll Shelby and asked him to spearhead the program. The early cars combined a steel monocoque chassis with Ford's 4.2-liter V8 engine pumping out around 350 horsepower. The first prototype made its public debuted on April 1, 1964, at the New York Auto Show.
Shelby kept building prototypes, including GT/104, which is for sale here. This version featured a lighter steel chassis and was raced at Le Mans in 1964. However, a fire forced it to retire. It was then repainted and had a 4.7-liter (289-cubic-inch) engine fitted. The chassis had its best finish at the 1965 Daytona Continental 2,000 Kilometers where it finished third with Bob Bondurant and Ritchie Ginther behind the wheel. Later that season, it was shipped back to Ford where it was restored and displayed at auto shows until 1971 when the automaker sold it. Since then, it has had many private owners.
Cosworth double-feature is XCar's a drool-worthy look back
Wed, Jun 11 2014While American fans of Ford performance cars in the '80s and early '90s were loving the 5.0 Mustang, Taurus SHO and, for those who wanted to be a little different, the Merkur XR4Ti, British fans of the Blue Oval were getting their own unique take on speed. The Sierra RS Cosworth (which was similar but not identical to the aforementioned Merkur) and later Escort RS Cosworth were the stuff of dreams with huge wings, hood vents and big power for their time and class. XCar Films aims to find out whether it is little more than nostalgia that makes these classics famous or it really is their legitimate performance. Thanks to its Formula One and racing success, Cosworth was already a well-established performance name in the UK by the time it began selling tuned engines to Ford for the Sierra and Escort. The Sierra RS Cosworth hit the scene in 1986 with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. Its huge wing at the back signaled it immediately as something special, and it proved to be a performance powerhouse on and off the track. When it was retired, Ford replaced it with the Escort RS Cosworth that used an upgraded version of the same engine with 217 hp, all-wheel drive and an even bigger rear wing to net yet more racing victories. XCar really gets into the spirit of the time, opening the video with the lo-fi grain of '80s and '90s TV, but to find out whether the Cossies stand up to modern scrutiny, you have to watch the video below. Stay tuned until the end to enjoy them at their best with some vintage motorsports footage. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
