I would not touch the Sonata, I had a brand new 09 or 10 for a week as a rental and it rode like it was bottoming out on the stops. The suspension was was that harsh.
You are right on the TC but a focus exactly like that one (an sel) goes through our dealer only wholesale auction (nationwide) for 5. He was much higher to start though he may move if I find flaws when I see it.
