Ok.. if only I browse this forum i would have put in my few thoughts also.. so now i will

As far as everything goes.. yes that is what this site was here for, was coz all of you have some interested in the focus and it's ability to compete with the sport compact scene. We are all here to chat about the focus and to share ideas/ tips/ tricks when it comes to modding our cars. The focus is definently a well built car compared to many cars in the same market. Yet, to this day I have yet to see ANY car be perfect and free of flaws.. even a HAND BUILT royce has some flaws, wheither it's just a missing bolt to putting a condom on the ECU (that condom comment was directed to my car and a recent recall). One thing i have noticed not only with this forum but with many car enthusists out there is the bashing amongst other cars, whether its import vs domestic honda vs ford, chev vs ford.. yet none of this bashing has any reason behind it.. everyone seems to say that "GM sucks" or all "hondas are slow" or "ford is found on road dead" but no logic reason behind it. I don't mind a good debate once and a while but what good is a debate if there's no support behind your reason?

As far as the different comment, i've been modifying compacts for more than 4 years now, and since the day that i've been into sport compacts different has always been known as when a car has advertise something but yet it doesn't actually have it. Some prime examples of different would be like a NOS sticker on my car when i don't have nitrous what so ever.. or if i were to put a toyota emblem on my car and say it's a toyota cavalier (BTW there is such thing), or type R on my stock civic. THAT is different. Tyler your car may have been made fun of by many people but like you said it was the first time for you to mod your car, but you joined this site, and if you ask me your car looks pretty good now. I see it once and a while in Regina and i've changed my perspective on your car. The thing is when you joined here, we may have made fun of your car but at the same time we directed you towards the right direction to modify your car tastefully, you listened to suggestions we gave.

Inconclusion all i have to say is this I MAY not own a focus, NOR will i ever think i will.. but at the same time here im on this site coz i respect the focus, and find it interesting. HELL i even bought a focus fanatics magazine to prove it to you all. My car may not be a focus nor a ford for that matter, but it aint different..

thank you have a nice day. :)
