Used Car of the Day: 2014 Ford Focus ST

by Tim Healey

Published: July 17th, 2023

Today's used car of the day is a 2014 Ford Focus ST that asks $14,500 and is based in Oregon.

The car is on its second owner and has a clean title. The seller says it has never been in an accident, though a body panel was replaced after a minor incident with a mailbox. So, too, was a mirror.

There are 71,000 miles on the clock.

Mods are plenty and include a cold air intake, LED headlamps, JBL subwoofer and amp, and a custom-wired radar detector.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

I reiterate what others said here, this worthless model was GARBAGE from new.

THIS worthless specimen is TEN YEARS OLD AND HAS 71000 miles.

By what LAUGHABLE stretch of imagination does its delusional owner ask for... $14,500????????

You can get a 10 year old MAGNIFICENT 7 or, even better, an S CLASS, for that kind of devalued, idiot Joe Biden dollars.

SO, surprise surprise.

TiM did it again! He found the LOUSIEST< PRICIEST, WORST Deal foe the prospective buyer.

WHY, TIM????

WHY are you so DOGGEDLY AGAINST FINDING SOMETHING THAT IS A BARGAIN FOR THE BUYER< NOT THE SELLER??????

Thats a lot of money for an unreliable lawn ornament. I’d take the Ford over some POS Mercedes.

Varezhka Not the biggest surprise, considering that the new 500 is a platform sibling of a similarly sized (but dead) Opel Adam. And Italy, its biggest market, is not the best market for BEVs. Curious if it will be the same 1.2L I3 mild hybrid as the bigger 600.
El scotto Does it have buttons for HVAC and infotainment controls? Steering wheel controls count.
SCE to AUX Fiat USA is a joke, and may not exist in 2026. They could put a Hemi in a 500 and nobody would buy it.
SCE to AUX "CEO Atsushi Osaki said Subaru remains committed to its horizontally opposed engine because it's a brand-building icon....Mazda CEO Masahiro Moro said his company will develop future versions of its trademark rotary engine to run on carbon neutral fuels and combine with electrified hybrid setups."These statements say a lot about how lost these companies are.[list][*]Subaru sticks with the boxer because it's an 'icon', not because of any technical merits?! Sad - the boxer is a loud, inefficient engine - so they're right. Does anyone actually buy a Subaru for the boxer engine?[/*][*]Mazda predictably killed the rotary range extender on the extinct MX-30 because it couldn't pass emissions. That's the story of its life. It's a terrible engine, but Mazda slavishly wastes money on it every year.[/*][/list]
