    this is awesome...I'd kill to have that cheap of a monthly payment. I'm trying to get rid of all my new cars now, pick up a beater truck for a daily (I've gotta have something that can haul a car trailer), so I can dump $$$ into my old stang and my e30.

      I think the focus looks pretty good. To me it's more about the mileage and just the reliability. It's so nice having a car that I can not worry about and have the fun I want to with the e30

        Sounds like we need to make a day of this. :-D

          I've been thinking of the focus or fusion myself. I get the A plan, and it feels like I have two project cars, and both have horrible gas mileage....unfortunately, I would have to sell the E30. I may add to this thread after summer is over....

              Good move. Reliability, you said it, is king.

              That's ridiculously cheap. I'd even consider a Focus for $150 a month.

              Any plans to come back to AZ any time soon?

                Haha yeah I have no complaints. And my commute is so short I buy a tank of gas a month basically. And IDK I'd love to return to ASU but sometimes life takes random turns. I may just get into school out here unless this job continues to pan out. I Promise I will make it out to Arizona with the e30 someday. I owe you a ride for sure.

                    Nice pick up buddy. Those are getting rare to get your hands on now since they stopped making 14's and there's a gap till the 15's. What did you get ST1,2,3?

                        I am not familiar with the 1,2, or 3

                        But it has all the options except the gray alloy wheels with red calipers

                        power heated Recaro leather
                        Touchscreen with NAV

                        What I love so far: The ride is comfortable, the cornering in this car is amazing, and it is a quick car

                        What I am not used to/hate: Torque steer is present; this is my first front wheel drive car ever

                            Yeah, I have put a lot of money into my e30 and I have two old BMWs that both get horrible gas mileage....both of them are 2 doors too!

                            The 97 M3 is and always will be my baby, so unfortunately, the e30 has to go....the next person/e30 enthusiast will love this gem though

                            I also come from a Ford family and I couldnt pass up a deal with the Z plan....
