BluePanda Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Tricked ya -- not a real mod/build log -- but I did finally get something to replace the Tiger you all love... A 2003 Ford ZX3 Drove three hours to take a look at it today and ended up driving it home! I will say it did have it's first incident on the way home. Of all odds the cooling fan blew to pieces (actually got to keep a piece as it melted to the engine). Pulled the fuse and made it home with the AC off. $100 for the first part -- but she's otherwise in a very beautiful mechanical condition. Bye bye tiger -- PURDY!! Good looking butt... Has a huge 4 inch tip -- but I can fix that. lol. Isn't loud...YET. (Maybe Onion would like this when I take it off?) I love it!

bp9801 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 I had no part in this. Liar! Very nice looking car Amanda, should make you a little more respectable. At least more so than the Tiger car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Now to begin the leopard print! 3 hours for a Focus though, not that I dislike Focus's or anything...but what's so special about that one?? Was the deal SO good, that the gas consumption was handily justified? (sorry if I'm the debbie downer of the party) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluePanda Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 So okay, the reason this car starts out so AWESOME in my book is because I'm upgrading from the TIGER. TIGER: 3-speed auto (no overdrive) Slower than SHIT Won't break Not fun painted like a tiger 4 doors no trunk springs hub caps Awesome stereo New Toy: 5 speed new clutch -- burns tires hehehehe fun Faster than Waco's car, easily faster than Onions 2 doors hatch door that hold itself open no stereo -- yet no hubcaps -- real wheels (OMG) $2000 Yes I'm going to mod this little toy -- that's half the fun. Have plans for lowering (duh), a new header and exhaust, revamp the dirty inside, move over my boom boom system, maybe paint? Probably some other stuff along the way... BUT -- first she has to get an oil change and a new belt. My new toy!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onion Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) Only faster than mine in a straight line, and barely. The ZX3, new, would get to 60 in almost 6 seconds. This one's ten years old, I'm not too sure it'll pull that much of a gap with my car or the Miata. In my opinion, RALLY CAR!
