Title: Stupid dealerships
Post by: slamedcat on May 30, 2006, 05:47:45 PM
I went to the local Ford dealer the other day and was looking around. I noticed an odd looking focus. It was a 2004, I think, that was brand new. No miles, never titled. So I got out and looked becasue the wind said $6000 discount. It was a Saleen Focus N2O edition.

The dealer has had it since new and can't get rid of it. I started reading all the things they had wrote on the windows and started laughing my ass off. You thought ricers were bad refering to Nitrous as Naws. Take a look at this.

Lol  All things aside, weren't those pretty nice cars?  A friend of mine was considering one, but got an SVT instead.

With the $6000 off the car still costs $31000. I can find a nicer car than that for 31K.

Whoa they were that expensive?  That's everything I could ever want to do to the bird, or a new F-150 with all the performance and stereo parts I'd want.

I'll deny it.  The hood scoop is probably unneccessary and the body kit is teh ghey.

If they're anything like the SVTs, they have shiznitty clutches and transmissions.

I believe in most states it's illegal to have the nitrous system armed while you are driving on the street... But who's gonna know(unless you get stopped)...

But the dealer says its a collecters car now that it is 2 years old and has no miles to speak of. So they say its worth $31,000.

It is only a collectors item if someone wants it, or buys it for that matter. lol

I think using a focus for anything other than a dd is wrong. Money is well spent some were else.

My 2 cents

I couldnt have said it better myself. Especially when I have been looking at Quad Cab Super Charged Harley Davidson F-150's for cheaper than that...Not much cheaper but you get my point...
