My New Shitbox!!
Hey guys,
Been pretty busy lately with school and work and therefore my participation on this forum dropped to virtually zero. As some of you knew i had a 2005 ford focus that i loved, but because of the economic situation, I too as many others, had to grab some cash. I decided to try to sell the Focus despite the bad situation/reputation of the current canadian domestic used car value. The plan was the sell the Focus at a good price and get into something more sporty while pocketing some cash.
So here she is. Many of you will probably say "shitbox" or wonder what is sporty about it, and it isn't necessarily fast, but it is a LOT of fun. Feedback is amazing and driving response is very precise.
I picked her up on Monday and then also went to buy a parts car and swapped the entire interior over. Below will be this past monday vs. thursday shots.
The car drives dead straight and runs strong and will only require and brakes/rotors and a new timing belt (just in case)
Anyways without boring you further her is my new 1986 BMW 325e

Im very happy with the car and will keep you guys updated more often with exciting new upgrades and fixes
