Minnesota Focus Owners Club

i dont even know where to start. first off. I'm sorry. 2nd. the 03 focus is fine. IT IS NOT DAMAGED and is pending a deal in order for me to get this ZX3 I am looking at. I have an idea as for who got into my account, but for future reference, please ignore any post from blueebullet. I am using this account now. I will try to come to Lakeville on Friday with the 03 to show you that the car is fine to make you feel better if you want me to. It is sitting out in MY driveway right now. In one peice. Perfectly fine. Yes I would like to get rid of the car because it is VERY slow going from my 08 focus to the 03. As monkey Gein said it is an SPI. I am not to the point of giving the car away for free and never put it out on the yard with a sign saying it was free. I have a dealership who is offering me 2500 for the car. If anyone of you want to offer more for it, feel free to. I bout the car from my parents for 4 grand about 4 months ago and it has not been driven much since I got it. current mileage is around 49000 miles. The person I believe posted this is pissed because I wouldnt buy her car from her..... if anyone wants a 2002 Honda Civic let me know. Let me know if you have any other questions and i am sorry again for the drama.

drama gives us something to do. fuck that honda. sorry to your frind if they read this, but even if someone was looking, that one would be the last one to look at. m7y offer still stands, i'll threow in a little cash and mayb4e an item ir two. but my suggestion to the 03 is: KEEP IT!!!!!! slow helps keep you out of troublew......

only issue with me is i am use to my fast 08. so the few times I have driven the car, I have almost gotten hit cuz I am use to it moving and it doesnt. It depends on how the deal goes with the dealership. I posted pics of the zx3 I am considering. I do want to get a hatchback though.

Fast and Focus don't go together.

Do you have any interest in learning to drive a stick? (Assuming you don't know, all of your vehicles have been automatic).

yea I do have interest in it... just dont have the money to go get a car that I know I will damage the clutch at very least if not more. I know nothing about driving a manual....as sad and pathetic as that is.

it's not hard. i know your thinkingg "yeah, froim someone that knows how, it's not hard". but, for real it's not. it's so easy i don't remember learning. and there are way for a newb to do it. maybe you should buy a cheap stic and see how it works. i'm confident though, get a stick......... i want a stick

if you need help. i'll coach ya (not a pick up line)

just a matter of finding a cheap stick car.....lol

Aw, hell. I got a 1/2 hour crash course in a Jeep, then perfected it in my SVT...with the sales guy in the passenger seat.

Understanding exactly what's happening mechanically is very helpful at first, though.

I dont know anyone who would let me learn how to drive a manual on their car...well cept the psycho who flipped out on here on my old account.

I'm sure I'm harder on my car than any newb could ever be

You can use my beater to learn any time you want.

I live in St Paul, so anywhere isn't really too far for me to go.

As far as when, should be available most evenings except the week before the 4th of July.
