Looks like teh ZTW is in the lead! Wooohooo!
belacyrf 08-02-2005, 11:28 AM Great cars.. the 05 was tough to go against, but theFrush has that "Function over form" thing going that I love so much!!
BlackNRed01 08-03-2005, 12:49 AM the frush his car is oh so clean
FociS8nt 08-03-2005, 10:10 AM wow its not my month :) thats too bad cuz its my last one too :S
belacyrf 08-03-2005, 11:01 AM Dont get caught up in not being voted for. Your car is awesome. Alot of the votes on here are "who is my friend" or "who do I know". Dont take it as a knock against your car. Your car is beautiful and very well done.
the only reason I didn't vote for you (is the same reason I didn't vote for the 05). I like function over form. My personal preference... but that doesn't change the fact that you both have great cars!!
Chick 08-03-2005, 11:13 AM ^He is right. It could takes quite a few times before you win, just look at viney. He has been in it what, 5-6 times already. All the cars in this months and every months deserves to be ROTM.
And Focis8nt, your car is hot. I had trouble deciding on who to vote for!
Dragon 08-03-2005, 11:48 AM fociS8nt....don't throw in the towel. You have a sweeeet ride. It will make it one of these times. I voted for ya so ya can't stop now. It will be a ROTM soon !!!!

Goat Roper 08-03-2005, 02:09 PM As the saying goes, gotta be a bridesmaid before a bride FociS8nt. Viney should know, he has been catching the bouquet for months now [:)]
viney266 08-03-2005, 11:45 PM I've got a big collection of flowers... I used 'em to buy my SVT brakes! LOL
Chick 08-03-2005, 11:50 PM ^LOL.
viney266 08-04-2005, 05:04 PM New pictures just uploaded!!! Finally got up some pictures of the new brakes!

viney266 08-04-2005, 09:44 PM It is because I even posted pictures of the car in front of CORN !!!!!
Chick 08-04-2005, 11:26 PM http://www.focusfanatics.com/gallery/data/508/93vps.jpg
LOL! See, if you vote for viney, it's a vote for corn!
I didn't get to see all the pics when you sent them to me. Dang, those are some nice ones![thumb]
Lil PZEV 08-04-2005, 11:27 PM Nice Gallery!! The corn pics are great.
FociS8nt 08-05-2005, 02:03 AM lol I appreciate everyones compliments. I like the metaphor of the bridesmaids I will have to remember that but no sadly the focus has been traded in and a new 05 pontiac pursuit has taken its place...had a baby and i guess thats what ppl with babies gotta do .lol shitty ohh well I have a 1988 dodge omni as my next project and it will surpass the focus ;)
Chick 08-05-2005, 02:05 AM What is a Pontiac Pursuit? I have never heard of that before.
Lil PZEV 08-05-2005, 09:08 AM Me either? Maybe it's a Pontiac we have and renamed for Canadian buyers?
http://www.gmcanada.com/english/vehicles/2005/pontiac/pursuit/
Lil PZEV 08-05-2005, 09:13 AM That looks like a neat family-hauler!
Goat Roper 08-05-2005, 10:10 AM Rebadging Cobalts, thats all GM does anymore is make 1 car and 6 diff emblems for them
viney266 08-05-2005, 11:36 AM Naw. they buy focus wagons to haul the kiddies in...LOL

Chick 08-05-2005, 01:36 PM Yeah! People are finally voting. LOL. It was going pretty slowly the first couple days.

viney266 08-05-2005, 01:49 PM And your point is? ^^^
H&Rzx3 08-05-2005, 01:55 PM do you have 3 kids?
Originally posted by viney266

Yeah I don't get that either. There's more mods on that wagon them a TON of the other cars on this site. How often do you see a wagon with nitrous, a CF hood and rims? Damn unique.....
H&Rzx3 08-05-2005, 01:57 PM not often, b/c it's a wagon.

What is your point, really?
H&Rzx3 08-05-2005, 02:02 PM just forget it then [rolleyes]
tunedfocuzx3 08-05-2005, 02:36 PM I'm pretty sure he does have kids...Viney?
viney266 08-05-2005, 02:51 PM I have 2 kids and a dog. The kids love the wagon... I also have a 914 Porsche, a blown 84 mustang, and some really fast bikes!!!
The reality is that I need a family car for trips and such, but I still wanted it to handle well and be a little fast than most cars on the road...you know, like SVTs?
viney266 08-05-2005, 02:53 PM Originally posted by H&Rzx3

He is just upset that it is faster than the SVT...LOL [;)]
H&Rzx3 08-05-2005, 03:09 PM ^^ honestly that doesnt bother me. if i put as much money as you apparently have in your car, there'd be no competition.
but have fun w/ your family car, and i'll have fun w/ my SVT.

Don’t let me get up in here and whoop some a$$, don’t diss the wagon. It’s unique and very modded. You don’t like it, then oh [:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)]g well. I’m not in the mood today , so back off the wagon boy.
Oh by the way, I was like joking and being scarcastic, working, so it's kinda hard to click some smilies...............
Domesticated Focus 08-05-2005, 03:46 PM voted for Az 05 Focus...
had to rep the 05's
hotfocus 08-05-2005, 04:02 PM Man only 70 votes? I think this one is being overshadowed by the Ride of the Year poll.
H&Rzx3 08-05-2005, 04:18 PM WRX wagons are the only wagons i have respect for :P

Yeah we all know your stance on this so knock it off and quit derailing this thread.
MaximusZTS 08-05-2005, 05:25 PM NO SEDANS!!!
viney266 08-05-2005, 09:00 PM Originally posted by H&Rzx3

They are VERY nice, we looked at one and the back end was just too small for us, thus the focus... The new full size wagon with the STI ( detuned) motor is sweet and we would have bought that if it was out. BTW I work at a speed shop that specializes in tuning WRX and sti platforms. We just finished an STI that made 470 HP to the wheels!
You are forgetting the new Dodge wagon , looks awesome, rides pretty well, but it is a dodge ( I'm not a dodge fan)
Also, if I was rich you can now get and AMG Mercedes wagon with the blown v8, if I only had $80,000[rolleyes] .
But my focus is fine with me, I like it and it works well...
To bad ford did'nt bring over the ST170 wagon that thing is bad ass..
Oh tell me about it, I would have snapped it up in a heartbeat!
.....
NO SEDANS!!!...^^^ Now the sedans come out of the woodwork.. Nominate one next month! There are a few hot sedans around.
..... We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread! [:D]
Chick 08-05-2005, 11:59 PM EDITED: Haha, nevermind. I don't wanna start an arguement[:D]

Oh snap. I totally forgot about Frush's SVT in this....[:(] I sorry.
Viney's ZTW> Everybody's else's SVT except Frush's.....[:I]
Chick 08-06-2005, 08:55 AM Dang people, vote!
LastRites 08-06-2005, 08:58 AM Teh wagon owns! I really hope he gets it this time.
SVT_BMXer 08-06-2005, 09:49 AM i think the wagon is going to take it this time, and deserves every bit of it. Seems like wagons are becoming more and more popular these days with modding and such, i was looking at getting a WRX wagon or trying to find an A4 wagon, but i figure ill stick w/ my SVT....good luck guys!!!!
Lil PZEV 08-06-2005, 07:54 PM Folks, consider it your patriotic duty!

Chick 08-07-2005, 11:29 PM Aaron & I was up at the lake with Viney and his family this weekend and his wife couldn't believe that their wagon was getting all those votes. [hihi]
This ends in a few days so if you haven't voted, and like anyone of the 5 cars nominated, PLEASE VOTE!!!
Cloud 9 ZX3 08-08-2005, 07:42 AM I have to support my white brethern, even though he sold it. [:(]

Quickly wagons, defend thyselves! Circle the wagons!![hihi]
Chick 08-09-2005, 11:43 PM LOL. I hope this doesn't come down to a tie cause it's gonna be a hard decision...........
Lil PZEV 08-09-2005, 11:44 PM Are you the tiebreaker in such a case?
viney266 08-09-2005, 11:47 PM I just need to make rockets that run off the nitrous to fend off the SVT's!!!
Chick 08-10-2005, 12:12 AM Originally posted by Lil PZEV

Yes and so are you and all the other moderators too[:D]
If there is a tie, which there never ever has been yet, then the moderators decide who the winner is.
saleenfocus2pt3 08-10-2005, 01:18 AM GO FRUSH!!!
Chick 08-10-2005, 01:24 AM Oh snap!
Teh SVT has taken the lead!
Chick 08-10-2005, 10:51 AM A little bit over 12 hours left to vote.
Please vote if you haven't!
i hope viney win this time..
he have been nominated for the last 11months and he loose by a couple of votes each time...

All the cars up are very nice but I gotta pull for Viney also. I'd be very nice to see a WAGON win the ROTM......
But as I mentioned, all the cars are awesome in this months voting....
Chick 08-10-2005, 11:04 AM I would hope he would win. Like pio said, he has been in it a lot of times and always loses by a few votes.
But it would be nice to see frush win too. That's why I said I hope it doesn't end up a tie cause it would be a tough decision for me!
When is this over again?? Sorry I forget.
Nevermind! Yeah, yeah I'm real stupid. Aug.11th.
beat3rfocus 08-10-2005, 12:45 PM FRUSH FOR TEH WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chick 08-10-2005, 01:18 PM Dang, this is gonna be a close one I can see it now!
R&DSVTZX5 08-10-2005, 03:33 PM OMG.... I can't decide... Viney or Frushie........
Two of my fav men running for the ROTM title at the same time is just too much! I want both of you to know this is a hard choice to make!
*flipping coin*........
sniff, sniff... This is so horrible! I can't vote for one and not the other... I need an hour to think this over.
Hey Donille, you can use this you know. Both will try to get you with gifts and flattery. [:)]
focus mike 08-10-2005, 07:22 PM thanks carmen for the link to this site in the pm you sent me :)
we all know that im uncle vinneys nephew so hes got my vote again.
frush i like you and all but you gunna lose!!!!!!!!!!!!
uncle vinney has to win this time! GO UNCLE!
focuson03 08-10-2005, 07:56 PM uh oh vinney by 2 votes. go VINNEY!!!
viney266 08-10-2005, 11:16 PM How much $$$ D... Just name your price...LOL...oh yea...you are even purdeyer than frushy says ( opinion of an "older", more experienced man LOL)
SD_Focus 08-10-2005, 11:45 PM funny how somebodies post count and popularity in the forum gains them votes. Doesn't work that way for me. I voted for the nicest car, which happens to belong to blacknlow.
Drabert 08-10-2005, 11:48 PM im fo the frushiness of them all... go frush... viva la california
