What To Do? - mo_focus - 06-02-2007

Well, sold the focus, this would be #3 focus. It was a very quick sale and bc of that its making it a little hard for me to decide what i want to do.

As some of you know i recently got my HID's and spend over 1K for them. So I wanted my next car to be a ZX5, 03-04 so i could still use the HID's. problem is that I can't find any. I know there are tons of it in the Auctions, but not for the price that i'm willing to buy :)

So what do I do, Do i get a ZTW? ZTS? or should i put my foot down for a ZX5 and wait for a bit. I'm looking for a 03-04 ZX5 Auto, its very common but as i said its hard to find one at a very low price in good condition.

or should I just sell the the HID's and get a different car all together. :(

ZX5 are nice.....i say wait, search and you'll find one...


hhhmmm...if u would sell HID's ...what would be the price?





What To Do? - mo_focus - 06-02-2007

That's the think Nik, I dont want to sell the HID's. had to freaking pay over 1K US by the time i got them. I don't want to sell less then 800 if i did. But as i said, i don't want to. That wold be the last possible option in this planet :)


What To Do? - NikiterZTS - 06-02-2007

well from what i know, you already had ZX3 and ZTS before....why not try new options for Focus ? i'd say ZX5 or ZTW......are u gonna leave your next car stock (not including HID's)? i love modified wagons :)

There is a liquid grey ZX5, stick, loaded for sale in Bowmanville last time I checked. 905-623 2906. I bought mine there.

thing you should think of first about the focus is this:

what do I need it for?, and what do I plan on using it for? how often do I need the cargo area? is my or will my family be growing?

answer those questions and you'll knowq what you'll need.

hehe I know, there is one I was looking at and I think the price is very good as well. so maybe i should consider getting into a ZTW. dammmm I guess i am geting old.

As for yours, sorry, As i said before my dad owns a dealership and I want to get a car similar to that but I dont want to pay that much:) i know its hard, but lets see :) The one i'm looking at is an 03 with 127K's and its ZTW with MR.

There a quite a few ZX 5's on Autotrader. With a ZX 5, you have less storage when the back seats are in use though.

mo it seems like you go through cars fairly quickly maybe leasing makes sense for you. i vote for selling the HIDs and leasing another vehicle. seems like you want a hatch/wagon and HIDs.. the GTI comes with HIDs from the factory.. mazdaspeed3 does also. or if you wanted to step it up get a A4 avant or a 328 wagon

on an off topic note.. i miss HIDs too


What To Do? - jen_deans - 06-03-2007

No mo!! Don't settle for something you dont really want, otherwise you will kick yourself everytime you see a zx5 drive by.. Just wait it out, I had to wait too but it was Sooo worth it!!! just keep an eye out as I'm sure you already do! :P

and... why over $1k for HID's???!!!


What To Do? - NefCanuck - 06-03-2007

Here's the thing mo,

If you're absolutely dead set on not taking a bath on the HID's that you bought, you've painted yourself into a corner because those lights will only fit a certain range of Focus.

Be patient, you'll find the car you want I'm sure :)

yeah i think a ZTW wont be that bad after all. I get more storage and i guess i will probably get tired of it in 6 months anyways.

Just to clerify one thing guys, my father owns a dealership. I dont loose money on cars. Hence why i buy so many cars. I usually come out even at the end. With leasing I know i will loose money at the end.

Thanks for all the help. I guess i'll find out what will happen this week.

Boost a ZTW? There isn't one in Canada that I'm aware of. That would be quite the first!

Good luck Mo!

Good Idea

Almost tempted to say make me an offer for mine.

When i was toying with the idea of buying another car that thought came to mind. Talk about a sleeper. Would definately be wicked original.


What To Do? - mo_focus - 06-07-2007

Got one :)

Let's see the new ride! ZTW I assume, or did you take another route?

Ya i agree with euro zx5, lets see some pics of it. And if it is a ZTW when does the turbo go in? :P
