Because in the registration it asks what your ride is and I said SVT Focus.

This was the response I got to the last message I sent the guy.

"I would say a focus RS is a european car, a focus zx3 I would say probably not. I approved your membership, try not to start a IS THIS A EURO car type war/thread thing.

thanks!

I'm sorry but this guy really comes across as a dick. "O.K. we'll let you come in and look around as long as you don't pretend to be as good as us"

I might be taking it the wrong way but it's not a real warm fuzzy welcome.

If it helps at all, the site owner said he actually considered buying a SVT Focus once, and I did buy my beater from his wife.

Like I said, maybe I was over reacting.

I guess my taste in cars runs like my taste in music, I like everything from bluegrass and classical to rockabilly and heavy metal.

I'm the same way with cars, I don't care if it's American, Japanese or European. If it's a cool car, it's a cool car. I'm not going to look down on someone just because they drive a different car than I do.

The early U.S. Foci were very European as is the SVT if you ask me, besides being a far nicer car than the price and reputation would lead a person to believe. I guess I'm preaching to the choir here but I'm proud of my car and I'd put it up against most anything in it's class and many above it on a windy road or road course.

How bout I change it to, "wish I had a focus"? Would that be better?

SVTF ftw

I'm beginning to see why they noticed the abundance of Focus owners, They only have a little over 400 members so when 30-40 sign up in a week they probably notice

the focus is a very euro car. my whole plan behind my car is to make it as euro as possible. and if they try to ban me because i drive a focus, i always have the audi!!

Thats how it always is... you guys know what I deal with now. Kris is a nicer person compared to the Volksport crew... eurowerks was the friendliest site out of all of them, but I've heard from many people he's really VW-headed. He's always welcoming people to join him, ect kicked out and banned members for showing up to a cruise with alcohol, he does good things, but sometime he does come off as hard headed. I don't care though don't even take it to heart. VW people and VW lovers are some wierd ass people

that and if you have ever seen one board invading another you would understand what he was doing
