nice but would never invest in making a focus a track car.

Forgive me if you don't like my opinion but quite honestly I just don't give a fucc. It might be awesome around a circuit and in a straight line but I have never liked focus's.Originally Posted by Nemesis

You were born in 88 which puts you at around 20. Fair enough, fairly young, you were 19 but a few months ago .
You drive a 3G Eclipse, which by no means is a POS beater, but still can be had for around 10 grand and still driven by mexicans that think RS means Really Sexy. You arent made of cash or else you wouldnt be driving one.
And before you say, oh Nemesis look at you, you drive a POS mustang. HA HA Sure its a Mustang, but its far from a POS, and Ive driven and ridden in cars that rival both of ours and I give respect where it needs to be given. I dont follow no brand loyalty and I like owning different types of cars, Im 25, and Ive got plenty of my life to live and I sure as hell am not going to diss a car just because of its name or branding. Ive gone from a Ford , to a Nissan, to a Subaru, and now back in a Ford, not because of any reason but me wanting something different.
So anyways back to the point, you say you drive your car because you liked it and picked? I call BS on that good sir because 99 percent chances are you drive because either
A. Mommy and Daddy bought it for you and you didnt have a choice
B. It was all you could afford, because if you were "ballin" you sure as hell wouldnt be driving that.
Either way, you drive a 3G Eclipse and in conclusion, in your very own we words, WE SIR DONT GIVE A "FUCC" WHAT YOU THINK.
Why not!!There cheap to get,great suspension,and there motor is strong!!I think there close deck,good for turboOriginally Posted by redGT

A stock focus can support 300hp on turbo or about 15psi..It's been done many times...Rod and piston is not expensive.It least you don't need to have the block sleeveOriginally Posted by JITB

I hate ford's with a passion- but I must admit, my wifes Focus is actually a very fun and easy car to drive. It just has a lot of little (but expensive) issues.
BTW- that is a very nice Focus.

I have just never had any luck with them- they always have so many electrical issues. It is as though when Ford used to see me coming they said "go get the lemon for him"

Thats a very nice Focus. I would take one over a Civic, Celica or Eclipse any day. The people cutting it down more than likely have never driven one.

This is entirely true. It seems like the rest of the world gets whatever cool **** ford has, including the GT and all the hot mustangs (which we get as well...but it's ALL we get)....and all we ever get is lots of plastic and not a lot of power potential. Weaksauce.Originally Posted by RUFFIAN
I will say that I like that focus a hell of a lot. It's very well done. Good stuff!

very nice focus. In Europe they have a RS focus which is too bad is not for sales in US.
Looks pretty sick. Dont see too many modded Focus's, that engine is damn sexy.
very clean car. i'd drive it.
no RWD cobra conversion no care....
