Haven't seen a thread here on sightings in TX, so I figured I'd start one. My most recent was this afternoon in Austin @ Burnet rd X Anderson ln a yellow ZX3 with black-as-night tint and a roughly 2 ft long drag wing. Whoever You are, nice ride![race]
I saw a silver ZX5 with black doors one side, exhaust, and rims right by my house when i was going to starbucks today. I revved at and chunked the duece. I have never seen it before. Sounded like an auto but I can't be sure. All I do know is I can take em' ...er with a working shifter of course lol. I need to drive around my town during the day apperently I must be missing all the other focus's. I keep seeing some of them but never anyway I can stop and tell them about the forum. We really need cards to give out to people.
^^ Tom has put up the design for the cards online before .... um ... just use the search ... to early to be looking up forum sections.
I saw last night at church ... Yes I am a church goer ... a DIRT BROWN *RARE* KONA. Yup ... it had a short throw shifter and an aftermarket stereo ... that is it. Everything else STOCK. Had like 45K miles on it. One of the guys who helps with the church drove it. Spoke to him and he didn't know that there were other people that fixed up Foci ... Of course he said that was cool ... but he didn't want to jump in. Since I drove the Edge yesterday (Family with Niece and Nephew and Mother in Law ... can't exactly fit in the little focus) he didn't see my focus.
His son who drove it a little for college put the shifter and stereo in ... he said they sold the rims when their son wanted another car.
Neato. I will take a picture of it next time. The wife thought I was silly and took the camera away from me when I did try to take the picture.
well since I work around the Rice University area ...
I saw driving in the middle of the construction on Rice Blvd, 2 Silver SVTs ... one 4 door Silver SVT with quite cute chick driving the car (Rice U Stamped on back) and another 4 door Silver SVT driven by a dude with super dark tint.
And yes Joe ... MoRe SiLvEr SvTs .... I tHiNk I aM gOiNg SvT cRaZy .... [unsure][goofydrunk][8]
Funny ... I bought my car back in the end of 03 at the Doug Stanley Ford guys on I35 South in Lancaster. When I got mine I wanted a Red SVT and they told me they never had one at their location ... always Silver, Black, and Blue. Funny thing ... I did my research when I bought mine ... but no on FI.
A used SVT was on the lot that day, Black with a Jackson Supercharger in it ... Beauty of a car. ... Only thing going through my head was ... it's used with 20K miles on it ... I don't want it. Knowing what I know now ... I would have said get it.
I saw a ZX5 with the SAP Package driven by a business attire woman ... RED AND LOOKED REAL GOOD. So good I actually had to look 3 times ... and not at the woman.
I didn't know they put the SAP Package on a Hatch ZX5.
I reached for my camera ... but being in the middle of Houston Traffic wasn't easy to get to it and snap a photo.
I saw one a couple of days ago that made Me cringe... It was a black SVT EAP on the news right after the hail had blown through Austin, Someone had sent in some vid footage, and this poor car was getting beat up on by tennis ball sized hail. You could tell the owner was ready to die, if just to go up to heaven and kick God right in the nadz.
Well, I think I saw Tom this morning about 8am. I was driving a white Town Car down MoPac headed towards Downtown, and all of a sudden I realized that there was a black Saleen right in front of Me. A minute or so later, I passed Him, and the drivers' profile looked strikingly familiar. Looked like Tom but can't be sure unless He verifies it...
Really, though. Traffic was nasty, and I only got a milisecond glance, so it could've been any 20-something Asian guy with spikey hair and glasses...
Raymond and I saw a Red focus right by my house. It had a exhaust tip on it and I think some rims. Hard to say since it was only a glimpse. Apperently I must live by a few foci I never see since I sleep during the day. There is also a pink focus I saw two weeks before this one. The whole car is pink.
Also maybe we should have a Tom sightings thread for those austin folks lol
there is a hatchback i see at my college sanjac south every now and then, its either black or very darkblue, offset exhaust, focussport decal on windshield. dont know if he is apart of here or not
yeah i have seen only a couple, you might have seen me too, mine is the lighter blue color sedan
