I park all the way at the back so somebody doesn't dent the door of my car with their door. Happened to my ZX2. Also ever see those guys who park on an angle of across three parking spots so no else can park beside them?

I don't get it... who cares what a car is worth? If you're enjoying life, nobody cares what you drive.

The guy tracked me down on a local message baord and said whenever he sees my car he parks beside me to...lol...we both had the same reason, because we dont want people dinging our doors...and since were both in the tuning scene we undertsand eachother. :lol:

Fine... I'll admit it :lol: I too park near Focus', but never do I go out of my way to park near one, that's for sure. I even make the extra effort to pimp the FC title and mention the forum.

I just went to the Post Office this am, I deliberately parked beside a black ZTS. No rear spoiler, however. I thought all ZTS's came with a spoiler.
Whenever me and the missus are out and about and I see a focus, I call out "FO-CUS". Drives her nuts.

^^ Mine thinks it's neat (the wife, not the car! :lol: ) to notice other Foci as we're out and about. For instance, there's a new Liquid Grey ZX5 in town, 1st gen, who's always hammering on it around on-ramps and such. He recognized the old car... now to get it so that he recognizes the new car! And, to hopefully get us a new member.
