What trim is the hatchback steeda? I'm looking at one to buy and it's black 2dr and I would like to know what trim for the insurnace company does it fall under. Also what is a good price for this car it has 92k miles. Thanks.

zx3 or zx5 trim....not svt or anything
insurance wont differ at all from normal focus h/b, steeda just has razzi gfx and decals...maybe seats, intake, and exhaust if it's fully loaded.

it's got the intake and the exhaust and it's black the person wants 4000 for it. Is it worth it at 92k?

theres a few people on this forum with their cars having 150k miles or so on them and still running fine...I think i read somewhere someone got a focus up to 210k miles and its still goin...is this going to be a daily driver, project car, show car?...will they negotiate on the price at all?

4k is as low as I could get them to go. This would be a daily driver. I would probably do some more mods to it as time went by.

My only worries that since it is a semi- high performance model it may have been driven hard or raced. The air filter is dirty and doesn't look like it's been replaced recently and the engine bay is dirty (doesn't mean much as many of our engine bays stay dirty) But just nothing to say it's been well maintained. I can't ask the owner because it is at a used car lot. So of course they will tell me it's well maintained.

Have a mechanic do a full lookover of the car. Take the VIN, and have your local Ford dealer check to see if there are any active campaigns on it. There were a fair number of recalls on the 00's and 01's, so be careful.
Like any car, you roll the dice when you buy. It's either going to be the most reliable car you've ever owned, or the least. With the focus, this is especially true when buying used.
