Minnesota Focus Owners Club

Just wanted to say whatsup, Im picking up my yellow ZX3 5spd tommorow as long as all goes well! Im pumped, I was originally a diehard VW fan, but after test driving a 2002 ZX3 I was instantly hooked. It handled better, was sportier, was much funner to drive and felt as though I was in dub by the quality of everything. I think Ford has really hit one out of the park with the focus. Compare it to other hatches for the price, age, mileage, fun-ness to drive, and just overall value of other hatches and it truely in my mind is in a class by itself. So, I just wanted to say hi to everyone hopefully get to meet some of you guys/gals in the flesh sometime soon....

you know at first i thought the foci looked like a v-dub, I dont know if im a fan of the ranger motor though. it is a torquey some bitch, and pretty responsive to bolt ons, to bad it dosent have the new chassis to go with the new body, mazda got the new chassis in the mazda 3

Zetech = ranger motor????? I would have thought the split port would be, my reasoning being it seems like the zetech is a sportier more car oriented motor that likes to rev a little more freely than the split port. But thats just a guess because I dont know the answer ...

sorry very inatentive today read over 2002 , i was thinking of the 2.3 dura smack. but yeah the z-tech is the way to go. i went out side to day for lunch time smoke, we just got done inspecting a blue 02 zx3 , 66,000 miles 5 speed , going for sale

its zetec

just got home from second job and thank you for the correction
