Actually pretty proud of the work that went into this. I just got the car 3 weeks ago and only found out a little over a week ago that I could get the car in through Canadian Tire where I work as a manager. Since they are the show's main sponsor I got 2 spots to park in next to the main stage at the show. This is one of the biggest car shows in Western Canada hosting close to 200 cars in the stadium on two levels, and over 100 cars outside in the parking lot. The only show I know of that's bigger is the Cruise week show which can have well over 600 cars make appearances. It's a Rod and costom show that caters to mostly 20+ year old cars. It's rare to see a new car in the show.

In any case, last night, I didn't get the car in until really late and only had 4 hours to take a muddy dirty car and make it completely spotless. The organization does not tolerate any dirt or cut corners, they run thier fingers over the cars with white gloves. I've never done a car show before so it was a very good learning ecperience and I had a lot of people come up and give me pointers.























Anyways thought I'd share cause I'm a whore

Very nice pictures. I still think the indash TV should have been left int he car for shows. By far one of the best Focus' I have ever seen.

Coconut and a Vanilla behind it. I always have those in my cars, I buy two new ones every month.

The wheels are massive, heavy and wide. They are only for shows and for cruise weekends. Otherwise I roll these:
