I am not a ford fan but that sure as hell makes me respect ford cars. I always wanted to buy a focus zx3 for a project but they are far from my price range right about now. Am I correct in the popular thinking that the zx3 motor comes forged from the factory?

When are car companies going to realize that plastic intake manifolds are fucking useless. I am thoroughly surprised that the intake didn't explode at 8psi.

That's an ugly valve cover..LOL but a nice car overall 250 hp for a focus isn't bad.

My mom used to own one in fact she was the first one in my town to have one when they came out in 2000. I think it was a much better ride compared to her 05 Taurus SES with it's soft ass springs I mean it bounces forever when you roll over a speed bump. Still not as smooth as my Civic tho I got some quality coilovers. Don't know the brand but it rides smooth when you take a bump, forget to slow down for a dip, anything, it handles well.
