    I noticed it's from a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealership. It's no wonder it's priced as such. A Sebring Convertible looks like a steal at 10% of the cost of a Ford Focus!

      Having just sat in and fiddled with the entire Ford and Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge lineup, I suspect it's more likely that they compared it to their own offerings and came to the conclusion that it was worth ten times the price.

    And that's why I'm ashamed of Federico. That whole dealership is epic fail.

    How can they charge that much when they won't even say which famous person died in it? That is what happened, right?

      The dude who played not-Michael Knight on the new Knight Rider did an ad where he drove a "new" Focus… I'm pretty sure his career is dead.

    To me, what's honestly scary about this is it only has one extra zero. Why the hell would anyone spend this much for a Focus?! Doesn't anyone know how many ugly, awesome old French cars you could park (in some cases permenantly) in front of your house for ~22k?

    I hardly ever use this card, but carry it around because that mag-stripe always seems to work when my other cards won't. I think I know why it always works….

      Is Compass Bank run by the mob? I know loan sharks that charge less interest than that.

    And here everyone's been telling me for years that a car is not an investment! I'm heading over to the Ford place after work to pick up a few of these bad boys, and they shall be on Auto Trader tonight. Any of my Hooniverse brethren that may be interested in one can contact me, and I'll sell you one for only 10% more than I pay. I mean, I want to make a little something for my effort here, but I want to give you guys (and gals) a good deal.

    It seems they didn't quite learn the art of negotiating. Yes, you are supposed to start high. However, you're not supposed to start so high that people laugh at you.
