I recently sold my 2007 F150 that I bought new to get a more fuel efficient car that's still sporty. After a few months of looking I narrowed my search to a SVT Focus. I found this 2003 E.A.P. Equipped 2 door at a dealer in north Jersey. It has 111,500 miles now and has been repainted unfortunately they didn't do it the original infera red. But looks like a mix between the stock red and comp orange. Luckily I like it... I ended up spending $4800 out the door.

I loved mine when I had it for sure, Was a great car to I just hope you dont run into tranny problems because that getrag tranny is expensive and extremely hard to find parts for. It enjoy it though they handle like they are on rails probably because they dont make a ton of power though.

I live in southern NJ so maybe it is. It's actually my neighbors house tht died a few years back but were still close to the family that still owns it. Better backdrop for a pic then my driveway.

Where in NJ are you?

Looks like you got a fully loaded car, I bet those recaros are comfy

Enjoy it!

Ya that's why I got it. Every option available is on this car. And yes I love the Recaro seats. Which was a major selling point for me. Should help a ton on track days and auto cross.

In the 3 days I have owned it I love it so far. First things first I want to do the timing belt ASAP. Then maybe a tune and K&N drop in filter (said to be the best intake for this car) looking to get some more HP.
