Just thought I would say hi as I may be poking my head in and out after purchasing my new 2013 Ford Focus 
Curious how many of the originals are still here? For those who don't know me, I am Jason and I was the original owner of this site before DarkPuppet took it over.
I started off with a 2003 Ford Focus and regret ever getting rid of it. Anyway, thought I post a little time line of what I had before getting back into the Focus. I have to say, I enjoy the Focus the most. Living out of town and seeing that 600km/tank display on the dash is also a sweet bonus compared to the G8 GT that was using 16-17L/100km.
My old ZX3

The Sky

Then the G8 GT. This thing was a beast and fun to drive but expensive on tires and gas. As fun as it was though, I enjoy the Focus more though.

Since the photo, I got the windows tinted and put on mud flaps. That's about it for a while.

I hear the G8's with a turbo can get in the low 10's...impressive for what looks like a boat of a car.

Thanks guys! Good to see some of the originals still here to.
The Sky was sweet. Wish I didn't have to get rid of it but not having a backseat and much of a trunk made work very difficult so I got rid of it for the G8.

I'm still kicking around. Been so busy these days. Bought a house and planning for my wedding which will be in Windsor. Just an update. I ditched the 2013 Focus SE and jumped into a black 2013 Focus ST.
