      @@austinsautomotiveadvice Thanks for the reply! I also think it would be a better deal (if I see one). Some people say it's too slow, but I think it's wrong to compare it to a sports car. I drive a 2005 focus wagon at work and it's fast enough and handles well for what it is. A newer manual one should be even better.

    I've had many black cars: '95 Mustang Cobra vert, '90 Mustang GT vert, '95 Bronco, and a '01 Corvette vert. They are HOT in summer and impossible to keep clean. Have fun washing and hand drying your car every 2 days (it isn't fun and is bad for the paint). When a gloss black car is perfectly clean, they look the best. But unless you keep your car in a museum and only drive it in perfect weather, you are in for a lot of aggravation. My current Bronco is white and I don't even know the last time I washed it. It looks perfect all the time! Black interiors also suck: they are hot (especially a convertible) and show every piece of hair or lint or dust. Again, black is always dirty looking.

    You can not beat the look of a clean, waxed, (no swirl marks), black car. You could spend a day detailing a white car and itll look the same as a white car that just went through a $5 wash. But as you said, black shows dirt fast. White will still look clean even if with that same amount of dirt. Give and take.

    Only 33 mpg? Get about 40 mpg on a 2016 focus with the manual transmission now 230k miles. Zero problems so far . Not very good in snow and ice . Runs great always starts even below zero days . Put in windshield, new air filters ,plugs,coil packs, new bilsteins shocks ,struts , Steeda after market rear sway bar, battery, brakes ,tires 5 times, oil change every 5k miles coolant change, transmission oil 3 times, brake fluid change, front end alignment . That's all so far.. How much longer will it go? Got an extra alternator and thermostat just in case . They say put in throttle body from 2.3 liter mustang. Run lucus fuel treatment in every tank and motorkote in engine .
