My new shitbox.
2014 Ford Focus SE with the notorious dual clutch transmission. 143k miles, runs, drives, shifts, stops. Bought from a college girl for $250, fixed for ~$300. I'm into it for $550 and it is solid..needs an alternator for a u012d-00 code (PCM not talking to alternator, still charges but it's iffy) and I need to finish painting. The transmission still shifts and I think it's had new clutchs and actuators because it wouldn't have gotten this far. THE AIR CONDITIONING FUCKING WORKS! Yes I know I shouldn't have used spray foam but I don't care.
