Hey everyone. I just picked up a 2003 black 3 door SVT Focus. I bought it off my dad so I could have a daily driver for the DFW area. My 2008 Bullitt is my baby and I plan to continue modding it. So while it's down (it's getting suspension, brakes, rims/tires and redoing the long tubes ect.) I've got the focus. Trying to keep the miles and the paint chips low on my mustang.
I learned to drive manual on this exact car and it's in great shape. Yeah it's an SVT not an ST, but I needed a commuter and a daily driver. Beats a car payment. Plus, it's got 40K miles on it. So it drives great. Just have to fix the headlights and the paint on the bumpers. Might do some daily friendly modding to it over time. Probably just some suspension mods, light engine mods, a tune, and maaaaybe some exhaust. Turbo would be interesting, but honestly I'm going full bore on the mustang, so the SVT is going to stay slow fast, not shooting for quick really. Just a fun daily driver to keep for when I need it, and to take overseas when I get stationed over there again.
Other than that, I'm happy to be here and look forward to learning as much as I can about my new to me car. I learned a lot over at moddedmustangs about my Bullitt over the years. Hoping I can duplicate that experience. I've also got my eyes on an RS possibly in the future so....can't wait for that too. More of a mustang guy for sure, but I've got a sweet spot for the focus.
