Today I traded my beloved 94 Mustang GT for a 2001 Focus ZX3, I figured it was time for a change and what better change than to go back to my roots with the 4 cylinder performance. I don't know how many of you have ever rode in one of these but they are highly underrated. At 130 horse power and 2500 pounds it is extremely quick, infact I would go as far as to say that I could hold my own with my friends 1995 Integra GSR that only has a cold air intake on it I have drove it many times at the strip and right off the line to about third there isn't hardly any diffirence. The car only has about 200 miles on it so I am afraid to run it hard for the time being. These cars are definately on the rise and if anyone was thinking about getting one I would definately reccomend it. With a few mods this car could go from execptionally quick to a damn pocket rocket. If anybody has any info about what mods would void the warranty I would be very appreciative if you could let me know, because with potential such as this I don't know how long I can stand it to be stock.

There is a sport compact mag with a shitload of Focus parts in it. Look for that. Also yea those things are underated. There just needs to be a bigger aftermarket for them.

Good trade..i applaud u on that courageous move since
most people would rather stay with tha muscle car of dat mustang but itz kewl to be tha underdog. I'd like to see u hang with my GSR.....very lightly mod and still working on it :) Good luck on your project
