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.

JMII Based on the human drivers I encounter everyday I'll happily take my chances with a computer at the wheel.The highway driver assist system on my Santa Cruz is great, it can self drive perfectly in about 90% of situations. However that other 10% requires you to be in control and make decisions. I feel this is the problem with an AI driving a car, there are times when due to road construction, weather conditions or other drivers when only a human will know what to do.

Dale I'd consider the RAV4 if the Prime were on the table as paying for gas is for suckers. Otherwise, we have a couple of Mazdas and they are swell. I've driven older versions of both and the CX-5 is a nicer place to live.
