So, i got a 05 ZX5 for a rental car yesterday, and i had a few questions/comments.
So.... First of all, its not a bad feeling, looking car. Definatley feels alot more solid than my 01 zx3. but alot more... boring than my svt. the duratec seems like a much better engine than the zetec, feels a bit more solid. but a couple questions come to mind.
Headlights. i noticed a beam of light coming out sideways... like right next to the driver door. from the headlights. could this possibly be an issue with the car or is it common
secondly if you have the car in (1) will it come out of kickdown and shift at redline or does it keep going.
all the other gears shift at like 6000 at WOT. but (1) goes up to 7 and stays there.
Bear with me because i've never driven an automatic focus before. B)
