Hey guys, tonight I just sealed the deal on my brand new 03 Liquid Grey automatic loaded Focus ZX3! I can't wait to pick it up on Monday. Some of you guys may have seen me on here because I have been a member of this forum for at least a year now because I have always loved the Focus. As you can tell by my user name that yes I also own a 98 ranger, but I finally decided to take my show truck off the road to do mods easier and keep it looking nice. I am going to try not to go crazy modding the Focus, but it is inevitable and I will have to add a few things

Well, just thought I would introduce myself and warn you that I will be posting a lot of questions in the future. You guys have a great forum here!

Welcome!!
Let the Modding Begin!!
The FIRST Mod I recommend, is the Weathertech WeatherFlector Visors.
Tony D has them at NewEdgePerformance.com.
I got mine before he carried them, through AutoAccessories.com.
It's one of the MOST USEFUL Mods I could want on the Focus.
It's NOT a Visor that uses 3M tape. AND it's EASY to Install.
Nicely done Tint is sweet and Functional too.
Most who know me will be shocked that I recommend those two first, since I'm a Performance and Handling guy, but those two are both nice-looking AND Functional.
Then do a little to the Engine, THEN work on Suspension....Then More on the Engine, Then More on the Suspension, then LSD, then....

Just MY Recommendations....

To answer BlueSVT2911's question it is a Zetec. What made me go with the auto, well I am not into racing and I am lazy...hehe.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I can't wait to get it home.

Hey guys, sorry to bring back up an old post, but I just thought I would give you guys an update. I picked the Focus up yesterday and I love it! Rides a lot better then my slammed ranger....hehe. Don't get all the looks that my shaved and slammed ranger gets, but maybe someday. Everything seems easy to use and it feels a lot more roomy compared to my regular cab ranger. My only complaint is the center console. In my ranger there is a cup holder on the floor with a compartment above it that can hold a CD and a small bottle of cologne. In the center console it will hold 5-6 stacked CD cases, coin holders, and enough room for some packs of gum and my garage opener. The Focus center console barely holds my garage door opener and a pack of mints, but the glove box is a lot bigger so that is a plus. Oh well, I will get use to it.
