traded my 00 se sport for a 03 ford focus ZX5 zetec atx

t-red its stock

30k mi all pwr moonroof etc.

still have my gf 00 se sport v6 atx 60k
will still be modding it

the focus is pretty quick i think its faster than my gf V6
and almost if not just as fast as my V6 5spd

handles great and is a quiet car

jw its the same zetec thats in the tours right?

does it mod well i see tons of aftermarket for focuses

anyways will always love the contours just wish i got to own or even drive a svt contour

Nice....but I hope you don't mod it too much, the tranny is notoriously WEAK!

The Zetec itself is the same....just with a few differences.

Which engine? You may have the 2.3L Duratec, I think they sold that engine in MA. The 2.3 is a great motor and the aftermarket parts companies have already developed a number of parts.
