I don't know what to do?
I LOVE my car 99svt(silver)
But it's got BIG highway miles (84,000ish)
and needs a few small things.
I commute like 90+ miles a day.
I still owe a bit on it.(close to bluebook value) Money has been tight. So I was looking into some new cheaper cars while this 0% crap is going on.
I like Ford and get a freinds and family discount (not that big a discount really but 800 or 900 for a 16 to 17k car saves me haggling woes) So that leads me to the focus ZX5 and the Mazda Protage´5. 4 doors for kids in car seats, and I would like a hatch for occasionally hauling my drums and crap. (I like the look of the hatches as well) Wife has a focus wagon(auto) and I like it alot. Technically they'll make a wagon with a 5speed but I'd never find one in dealer stock. And they cost a little more. Drove the ZX5
and it's nice. But I don't know If I can stand giving up the power and handling. Havent driven the Protage´5 yet. It's supposed to be sprung tighter and hence handle better. This may be the compromise car as I love the twisties, more than the drags? Not as sweet a deal though.
I don't know if I can sell it in time for the incentive crap. and would probably lean towards the focus because it's now 0% for 5 years with a 5yr 100k warranty. (protoge´5 is only 0% for 4 with, I think 50K warranty?)
What to do?
What do I ask for it?
Anyone interested?
???????
