So? I already have a Mustang . . .

EDIT:
(I am not trying to be confrontational. Didn't want you or anyone else to think there was a "tone" to my response. ) I may not even like the car when I finally get to sit behind the wheel. However, it seems to fit the bill (for me) as a daily driver quite nicely . . .

the thing about prices that I try to remember:

yeah, I built a B-A 26,000 focus.... but a similarly equipped (minus drive train of course) v6 Mustang would come in at 30,000 easily. I could buy a stipper focus for 16,999. options is where they get ya.

Yeah without sync and touch. Also remember these are MSRP prices which no one will...well no one should pay.

Just really sux can't get a manual on anything above the SE. I hoped the Sport package on the titanium included a manual option.

Man, Focus is pricey now ... $18,000 for a base hatchback?

I remember when dealers used to advertise a base Focus hatchback for as little as $11,000-$12,000.

Yeah, I got a fully loaded hatchback upto $27,420. Thats more than my '05 Stang sticker price. Crazy, but all car prices have gone up.

Me too ... although it was European Escort, my uncle used to own one in the mid 1990s.

That's a lot.
And based on that, a fully loaded Focus ST/SVT w/ 2.0L EcoBoost will probably cost in mid-$30,000. That's little too much for a Focus, even a 250 hp one.

Since we are guessing, I bet the ST will start at ~$26,500 (which is ~$4000 more than base Titanium Model) and go up to $~31,500.

However, (again since we are all guessing and not one of the posters in this thread has driven a 2012 Focus) I bet the average selling price of a Focus (not including ST) will be ~$22,xxx.xx. Which doesn't seem too bad in my opinion if the level of detail/fit-n-finish is as good as predicted . . . .

I'm thinking a base titanium is the best deal for what you get. Mytouch, pushbutton start ,leather, decent wheels, and color choices... adding all of the cool options after that really makes the price skyrocket. moonroof, nav, two tone interior, etc... nav might be worth it for only another $750

FYI . . . Titanium comes standard with Cloth Sport Seats, not leather.

I do not disagree that the car is worth it. I just remember when the focus first came out you could get one for around 9500 for a hatch. I was in 10th grade and I thought is was ugly as hell but you could get it in a stick which my taurus was not.
