As you can see from the pictures I have a great appreciation for fun cars and they are all in near perfect condition.

This car has been meticulously cared, its condition is nearly flawless inside and out and is an extremely fun car to drive! I purchased the car form a Gentleman that was in his late fifties with 7740 miles on it, he and his wife took some trips in it and stored it in the winter as I have also done. The car has never been driven in the winter or on bad roads and seldom even in the rain. When I purchased the car I spent a tremendous amount of money on upgrades and had the turbo installed with about 15000 miles on the car. The upgrades are;

$6500-Hellion Turbo system that was professionally installed and dyno tuned by a ford racing shop in Chicago. The car produced an incredible 435 horse at the wheels on 91 octane and 483foot lbs. It is running a very reliable 9.5 lbs of boost. It has very little lag and is extremely controllable and yet is Extremely fast. I had a 97 Viper, this car would beat the Viper to 80 MPH. 

$3800-Instalation and tuning of the turbo.

$800-Turbo gauges and install.

$4500-MHT true, three piece 20" wheels that are staggered and wrapped with Nitto Invo 255/35/zr20's in the front and 295/35/zr20's in the back giving the car a very nice stance and rake to it.

$600-Magna flow exhaust.

$500GT 500 rear spoiler.

$300GT 500 front chin spoiler.

$1500-Cervini-Custom hood, paint, Grill and center head lights.

$500-Cervini-Custom light,roll bar

This is my first Turbo car and it is very addictive, when the boost kicks in you can very literally watch the boost gauge and modulate the amount of boost by simply applying more throttle. The car produces so much torque that at lower speeds you have to keep the traction control on or it will spin the tires uncontrollably and yet you can drive it all day in traffic with no overheating or any drivability issues. You would never know the car has a power adder if you don't want it. Thats the beauty of the turbo.

As you can see I truly have spent a tremendous amount of money on the car. The result I believe is it has an amazing look and muscular stance that gets a lot of compliments! The majority of the miles are from my wife driving it because of the other cars that I have. It gets low twenties on the highway, I have always used Synthetic oil. The car is nearly flawless in every way. The only very minor issues are a couple of minute rock chips and a small scuff on the passengers side of the convertible top that I have shown and the front chin spoiler has a crack in it due to my wife pulling up too close to the curb.

I do reserve the right to stop the auction early.

I have been a long time Ebay member, I have not sold a lot on Ebay but my Items have always been cars or motorcycles and the new owners have given great feedback. There are No disappointments with this car.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.

Ford Fiesta becomes UK all-time best seller

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

We may regard Ford as an American automaker, but ask a Brit and they may tell you otherwise. The Blue Oval has, after all, been selling cars in the UK since 1903, and started manufacturing there as far back as 1911 when it began local production of the Model T in Manchester. Last year Ford ended 100 years of vehicle manufacturing in the UK when the last Transit van rolled off the assembly line in Southampton, but it's still the biggest-selling automotive marque in Britain.
Ford has led the British market for 34 out of the past 45 years, selling more Fiestas than any other company sells any other car in the UK since 2009... when it overtook the Focus. In fact the Fiesta has now become the best-selling car in British history, topping 4,115,000 units since its introduction in 1976. The previous record was held by - you guessed it - another Ford: the Escort sold 4,105,961 units over the course of its 32 years on the British market.
Although the Fiesta is no longer manufactured in the UK (previous versions having been built at Dagenham until 2002), engines are: the EcoBoost line was developed at the company's R&D center in Essex and are built at the factory in Dunton, while its diesel engines were developed at Dagenham in East London. Even the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta ST is built in South Wales.

Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner

Fri, Aug 29 2014

For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.
