ok so they are all 16 GT Premiums with the California Package with 401a in oxford white...Here's the details of each one

1) Has only 800 miles STOCK..I got it down to 32300 before tax and fees with the factory warranty...Only 6 hrs away

2) Has 4100 miles with tinted windows and a aftermarket axle exhaust..And car is CERTIFIED....$31750 before tax and fees..6 hrs away

3) Has 3300 miles with tinted windows factory warranty...Got it down to $31500 before tax and fees..but is 13 hrs away

I would fly to nearest airport and drive back...Which is the better deal? Or neither are good deals and I should still continue looking? Thanks guys

I would get the 800 mile with 32300. The difference is so small get the newer one.

I'd go for the certified, it gets you 12 more months bumper to bumper and 2 extra years (40K extra miles) on the power train warranty plus a bunch of other extras. Ends up giving you better coverage than either of the other two despite having the highest mileage.

Definitely 2 or 3. Those miles are so low anyways, each of them are practically new. Personally, I'd go with #2 and save on the tint and exhaust unless you don't like what's on there.

all others being equal, i'd go for number 2...though I'm not familiar with teh value of Ford's Certified program. Compared to #1, a good warranty and the two upgrades are worth a couple hundred more despite the additional miles.

#2, the miles are still super low yet you get a much better warranty. Either way you look at it, they are all used cars, even the 800 mile one so why not get more for your money?

I'd go #1. Bone stock ftw.

This. Plus you'll most likely end up like the rest of us and getting the mod bug and voiding the warranty well before they are expired anyways. Especially a 7 year 100k mile warranty.

I would go #1. Unless it traded back in after a month, you know it was barely driven, which likely means old man (I know..I know..some old guys crush it and i love you for it, but ALL young guys crush it), which means his idea of performance driving was to hammer it at the on-ramp once in a while, only driven in nice weather, washes religiously, etc.

Mods under warranty are fine unless you go extreme and do like forced induction. I had a stage 3 Focus ST from almost the day I bought it new and I got it serviced under warranty many times all the way up to the 60,000 mile limit. It is up to the dealer by law to show prove the mods caused a failure or they have to fix it.
