. Compacts must really be scarce out west...

That plus population density.

Its why I buy my cars in Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec, etc Huge selection compared to local.

I recently picked up a 2016 Ford Focus with 132,000 km for a fantastic price. Seems this gen Focus has a bad rep for the powershift transmissions habit of blowing up. That's why I bought this one, its a 5 speed MANUAL! I believe the entire powertrain is largely Mazda (2.0 n/a 4 cyl). It's a great car to drive and I think its an absolute bargain compared to the imports it competes with.

Compact cars are indeed hard to find. The used values are insane, especially here in BC. Congrats on the Mazda, they are awesome little cars.
