This unique 2014 Ford Transit Connect XLT sold on Bids & Cars<\/a> for $28,555. The factory 2.5 L inline-four and six-speed automatic transmission are gone. In their place is a turbocharged 2.0 L EcoBoost inline-four and six-speed manual transmission from a 2014 Focus ST. The engine features a COBB Tuning Stage 2 tune, Mishimoto intercooler and aluminum radiator, and modified COBB Tuning exhaust. The transmission features a SPEC Stage 3 clutch and MFactory limited-slip differential. The van rides on Eibach lowering springs, Gazzmatic International adjustable rear shocks, and Focus ST 18-inch wheels. Inside there are Recaro leather seats, Focus ST cluster, and Autometer gauges. <\/p>\n
