Thinking about purchasing a different car. What are your guy's opinions on a 00 SVT Contour vs an 03 SVT Focus? Squeeks and rattles, handling, get up and go, value, ect...

I found a nice SVTC but I got curious and found the Focus but it is an extra $4K and 20K less miles, so I want an opinion to see if it is even worth looking into.

Thank you for your help
