What do you like?

Love my blue candy paint and the fact it's a HB and the sound of the engine. Getting tint on Saturday.

doesn't look that great,has the factory crap radio,runs good,but I guess the coolest thing would be the gas mileage!!

The blue LED interior conversion I did and the stainless steel gauge faces. I like the Scangage II mounted over the radio too

Its relatively low cost of ownership, and the amount of cargo space I have.

Nothing.

But then I'm like that.

It's just another crackerbox car. They are all the same to me. Every one has good points and bad. It vibrates enough to rattle your eyeballs, but the flipside is that I can't seem to break the motor or trans. When it fails to do what I want then I beat it back into submission until it.................does what I want. A definite love/hate relationship just like the previous Contour and 2 Tempos. I wrecked one of the Foci, (wagon) to the tune of $5K worth of damage (note to self, please don't do that again), and after a MacGyver/Steve Austin moment (WE HAVE THE TOOLS-WE CAN MAKE HIM BETTER!) I rebuilt the sucker myself for $600. That was in 2008, the car has been no more unreliable than the one half its' age. Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'...................

I have that in my Flex, LOVE it, but it's not in my Focus. I will be upgrading the sound soon, though, I will be scouring any threads pertaining to this. I must say the system in my Focus makes my music sound like it's in a bucket, that is the only drawback so far.

What I love is the limo tint I got, it was a package deal from the dealer when we bought it so they only did the the back half but I will be getting some tint on front side windows soon. Looks a bit weird with such dark tint from the back passenger doors on and none on the front but I will be getting the darkest legally allowed soon. It is uber sunny SoCal, need that dark tint! [thumb] Looks great with the race red!

Haha! Someone beat me to it.

But, probably the "thunk" that occurs when I close the doors or the hatch. Germans know how to make a car air tight, that's for sure.

Is that someone yourself? Are you conversing with your alter ego? [poke]

No worries. Up until a couple months ago, I owned this..

And I still hang out with the people I met on this site on a regular basis. And I still have love for the FoFo even though I drive a GTi.

That's why I'm still here.

This. I bought my Focus outright with my own money. No help from the folks this time.

I love how it handles. And I love that ZX3s are rare around here, people double take all the time.
