Actually, Ford is continuing the car in Europe/UK as it is apparently a big seller over there. So, parts shouldn't be a problem. The engine is the standard I-4 1.6L that has been around for ages and no availability issues will come with that either.
I think you would be okay buying one.
The dealership I dealt with also mentioned that it is one of the lower volume warranty work cars as well, which is a fancy way of saying that while under warranty they don't tend to break very often. Apparently 150,000 to 200,000 lifetime miles is pretty common.
Similar discounts are out on the higher end models, so if you ever wanted an ST now might be a good time. Since this is a commuter, I needed an automatic. But the ST looked really nice.
