Hey guys, I have been on this forum for a while and have never really wrote up a thread on my car! It was a long and stressful process to get it, but I have it now and am happier than ever with the car.
So, I started looking for my car a year ago. I knew that I wanted a focus as I wanted something affordable, fun to drive, and plenty of mods available. I went and test drove a couple ZX3's and even a 2009 coupe. After every one that I checked out was sold, I thought I wouldn't find one. Then, I stumbled across a 2006 ZX4 ST that was in gorgeous condition. I drove out to the dealership and test drove it and was in love. Following the test drive, I went down to the dealership to discuss prices, but I was met with the salesperson telling me they were unable to sell it. The car had a FSWerks race header on it, so all emissions were deleted. They were going to send it to auction, but I had to have it. After, lots of negotiating, and me still overpaying by a lot in the long run, I finally brought her home. The car has 94,000 miles on it, but was parked winters and was extremely well taken care of. Here are a couple pics. I took off the SVT sideskirts and began cleaning it up and fixing some paint issues. Here is it now.
