wow lots of great cars. I see some on the road here in LA and at concours with a friend. But here's my car from the Focus website. I just had to get the most outrageous color offered. Great fun to drive and people really give me right of way when they see me coming. LOL Not like my gray 2005 Focus, that clean styling I liked better.
I'm bored with black white and 6 shades of gray on the road. I remember the 60s and 70s when cars were colors.
I put my exotic car money into my stereo system, otherwise I'd probably have a lotus elise probably in screaming yellow. I'm sure feeling my oats late in life.

Here in the UK it seems to be 99 shades of red.

Blimey, is that what an American Focus looks like?
yeah isn't it goobed up? I like the lights and grill but I really miss the european look of clean lines in this. A friend who follows european car magazines said the 2009 is really designed for young people with lots of badges, details and "fun" things like changeable colored lights on the inside.
I had the ZX5 gray four doors and hatch back, so much better. But hey, I can't complain about the new car because it's part of my dad's retirement package as long as it's a Ford. I don't have to pay a thing except gas and it gets 32mpg average. I drove a Fusion for 6 months and it was too big and V6 very aggressive.
In 2011 We'll get Fords Fiesta, Wow they look great and saw a lime green one on the freeway, I bet it was a test car.

I had one like that back in 2002. It was a great car.
My best friend Dave had restored this Alfa, what a dream to drive. Little red Italian stallion just wanting to be wound out. He really enjoyed it, oh and his roses too.
Sad he had to sell it but he needed something practical and he now has my gray Focus. Loves it and says it's just as much fun to drive as the alfa once he put new tires and stiffer leafsprings. And all the electricals work and AC a much needed item of desire.

Well, having followed the XJRs round various European circuits in the late 80s and early 90s - The car I'd have loved to experience from the inside.....if only .
Here pictured on the Hangar straight at Silverstone at about 180mph - best guess..... Oh the sound, the wail of the V12. Nothing quite like it IMHO.
