What we have here is a fine running SVT Focus.  It has all the options NADA lists for the SVT plus the audiophile stereo that includes a 6 disc DC changer and a power sunroof that does not leak.  No dents, no rust, no mechanical problems.  All the options operate as they should.  No problems with the CV joints, it shifts as it should.  If you are familiar with the SVT you know that this car has substantially more performance than a regular Focus.  Build quality is also much better than the next generation Focus.  This is the second engine in this car.  The first had a bad main bearing.  Replacing the engine was about the same as a rebuild so I had a used engine put in with almost exactly the same mileage as the car, so the 104K miles is accurate for both body and engine.  I had a new clutch and timing belt installed when the engine went in.  I've driven it for just a little less than 10,000 miles since the install and all is as it should be.  Overall the car is in nice shape with no body damage.  It was a southern car so it has no rust.  The breaks are good, the tires also have about 10,000 miles and are in very good shape.  The steering is tight, the whole car is tight.  The reason for selling is that I have way too many toys and I need to thin the herd.  The car is currently located in southern West Virginia but was in southern North Carolina before this.  The worst thing about it is the flaking clear-coat on the bumpers.  The rest of the paint is good.  The hatch release on the dash works about 50% of the time, but the releases on the remotes always work.  NADA clean trade is $4,450, retail is $6,550.  My reserve is somewhere in between.  Since this is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  Of course shipping is at the expense of the buyer.  I will assist with loading but the buyer must make all arrangements.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
