On craigs list. This made me laugh right away "34mpg." My old zts wouldn't go over 28mpg babying the dang thing.

I see the Nitrous tank has been removed, easy job since it was never hooked up.

I will say that with my 2000 ZX3 I got a best of about 33 on a trip to Kansas with the cruise set the whole way.

I also got a best of 31 with my SVT coming back from Road America stuck in 65 MPH traffic on Wisconsin 2 lane.

The second half of that trip I got my typical 27 once I hit I94 and set the cruise at 83 or so.

Too bad it has so many doors on it.

I should have tried to keep my '04 ZX3 2.3 MTX, it's one of the rarest Foci out there now.

I wanna know how he got anything more than 28mpg out of an Auto Trans

This is the 3rd time this car has been brought up here.

That is the car Waldoc had at The World Of Wheels a few years back. It is a truely nice car, fit and finish. BTW what is so "riced out" about it. I don't see a huge wing, giant faky frount mount, gaudy body kit or anything that would sugest "rice".

Oh, and as for MPG. I average 27 - 30 mixed in town and highway. The best I have ever gotten was 40mpg, on a trip down to Mason City Iowa and back.

on my way up to the first MNfocus meet, me and Kyle drove right by that thing in Cannon Falls... he didn't see it though

I saw that car acouple years ago at a car show....
I really liked the car. One of the first fully modded Foci I had seen at that time...

the car isn't too bad, just not too my tastes completely

its not rice though, its called a SHOW CAR (where all things are ridiculous and impractical)
