I dont know if anybody reads my sig but I got a 05 ZX4 ST on the 16 of June...I would have posted pics then but it has rained every day sence then....I got hit by a Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland/Ford Explorer XLT on day 8 of owning the car wich was last Thursday....The whole accident starterd b/c on the highway(it was raining I have real bad luck with focuses and rain)I was doing about 7-80 [censored] and every one had came to a dead stop right on the otherside of the overpass I was crossing, due to an accident ahead....So I hit the breaks and stoped kinda hard....Then I hear this sound of screeching tires and a honking horn and here comes a 2000 Ford explorer sliding his way toward my rear end....Well by some act of god his tire cought on semi dry pavement and gained traction for about 3 seconds shifting him into the middle land where i was in the left lane...he continues to slide until his rear end comes around so its in the right lane and his front end is pointed right at me...I breathe a sigh of releif seing as no one got hit or hurt and was getting my phone to call the PO PO to warn pewople of the accident ect and what do i hear now....oh thats the sound of the tires locking up on a 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland but hes not in my lane...He rear ends the crap out of the explorer and it comes(cuz the tires broke loose even while he was breaked) and here comes the explorer into my rear quarter panel! I called the PO PO and they came there about 5 mins later...While I waited I saw if every one was ok and the dude int the X was really upset and the guy in the Jeep kept yelling at me so I started cursing him out until the cops came and shut me up...So then i dont look at my car till this time and there is a dent the size of a computer tower in the car....So i began to tear up (yes ill cry if my focus gets hit darn it I love it) and so the Ahole in the jeep says stoip crying you(pu***) so i lace into him with another round of curse words infront of the cop and he finally puts his hand over my mouth to shut me up...they have my car towed and i get an accident report and the cop drives me home in his cruiser...I pulled up in the back of a cop car infront of my house and my dad lost it! It was funny he thought i killed some one...he was releived when the officer said "your son was in a car accident and he also has quite a foul mouth mr. knoll" so I had my dad was pissed but not at me and he told me to call the dude in the jeep and opologies for cursing him out(which i think he deserved) and im talkinjg to him and he says "yeah it would have been just fine if that ford Exploder wasnt there" and i lost it again cursed him out and hung up...So sence he talked bad about a guy(the one in the explorter who was completely inocent and the explorer(which i have one) I decided to go and have my car fixed that day took it to eldereidge which makes cars look better than new and told them have it done by monday....They did the original bill was for 1300 dollars in damage and the final was 3500 b/c they worked around the clock to fix it..I footed the guy in the jeep with the bill. So here it is after about 2 hours after I picked it up from getting fixed...and it wasnt raining so i washed it to!

That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. I can't believe anyone would buy that car.

Someone had to say it. Seriously glad you got it back and it looks good. Can't wait to test it against an EVO.

I really can't get into these new foci... Maybe if I see a modded one I will like it better, I just think they look alot like SUV/Mini Van's

But I love the color. It would probly look really good if you lowered it and threw some rims on there.

nice..i wonder if those taillights will work on my sedan
Image
They won't..they'll fit, but you need the trunk too. It's a different shape.

It's nice, I think the spoiler would be a direct swap tho

For a quick 5 whp gain, make some eyelids and take out the chormie part at the upper part of the headlights.

Your 05 ZX4 ST looks good Nick and glad that everything was fixed after the accident.

I look forward to seeing some mods on it when you get the chance.

BTW,I read your thread in the S. Florida forum earlier and keep Drew away from shifting it again.

Now I'm not dissing the focus here, I love my Focus to death, loved it so much, all the asian guys hate me now because I'm an asian guy who drives a Focus...it just ain't right they say....well back to the topic, the first gen focus' design was immaculate, flawlessly executed. now the second gen here reminds me of luxury style or v6 styling. The first time I ever saw one on the road, I was like neat design for the "Taurus"...then I drove past it and the back was a "Focus" emblem on it. I had to stop at the dealership and looked at it closely. It's still a nice car though just that this time, I think USA ford had more say about the design on the car then Europe Ford did. The headlights on the Focus are what sets it apart, now when i see the headlights, my brain just farts "Taurus"

Dont forget about that nasty lookin front grill. I still hate the look of the car. Congrats on your purchase.

It does look more bvroing i do say but its a civilized lok i like because my old focus had to be put in the gargage cuz it wasnt good enough for it to be out side with my ghey neighbors and this one is ok we havent got a letter from the homeowners association so theres pluses and minuses....i like the exterior but i agree with most the headlights on the old one i miss and i like the older dash to it has more visual interest even though the new one feels like a bmw interior.....Its great for me i like the understated look/luxury so its ok with me and i did notice the 400 is kinda getting the same look.
