Focus ST. I realize that, initially, it won't be as fun to drive as the Focus... but I'm so tired of spinning the front tires every time I give it a wee bit of gas. Hopefully, weight savings/suspension mods and decent tires will make up the difference.

2015 Triple Yellow Mustang GT
My first car was a 2001 Mustang in Zinc Yellow. Always wanted another Mustang after I sold it, but I wasn't a fan of the 05-14 body styles. I guess you could say I've been waiting for the S550 since '05.

08 Mazdaspeed3 stage 2 but still a mistake......
What happened? I have a '10 Speed3, stage 2. Have to say mechanically its rock solid but the interior started falling apart after the 3 year warranty ended. To top it off, the amp just died, an $800 part (not fixing it). I'm glad to move on from this car, my GT can't get here soon enough.

2015 Ecoboost PP
Currently driving a 2003 Pontiac Vibe that struggles to get to 70 mph in under 40 seconds and gets 27 mpg. I'm getting an Ecoboost w/PP with a manual. I don't even know how to drive stick. This is going to be glorious. ;)

I have a 10 Speed3 stage 2 and love it! And like you it's time to move up to a GT convertible in the spring.

The most recent short list includes a couple S2000's, 335i, G37, a Thoroughbred and Dutch Warmblood. :D We still have the horses and looking to add another pony to the stable.

2015 Ecoboost Mustang
I currently have a 2002 saturn sl2 (daily driver), a 2007 Shelby GT500, 1966 Mustang Coupe 6 cylinder, and a 1977 Mercury Colony Park Station Wagon with a 460 V8... I'm trading in the Shelby for a 2015 Ecoboost, 6spd manual, Performance Package car. My saturn's transmission is about to blow and I need something I can drive everyday (I drive 45 miles each way to work)... Time for somebody else to have fun in the Shelby

The car was mechanical fine. Never had any issues. But as you can see I wint from 2 bad ass V8's with gobs of power and looks to a 4 cly hatchback and was the 08 not the 2nd Gen. Got it when I was station in Colorado. Was quick and took to mods very well. But regreted it from day one. Just not my style. Even have a brand new accessport v3 in the box nver yous ed that I need to try and get rid of.

03 Cobra (info in sig) Looking forward to the refinements. Blower or turbo is in this pony's future so it is not as bad of a drop in HP levels for me. I will admit that the car makes over 700 crank and not as fun when it made less. Tires are getting a workout at every drive these days. Daily driver so ... lots of workouts. :)

My previous car was a 2012 Focus Mk3 with the 1.6 EB. Unfortunately someone else totalled it by crashing into it while it was parked, so I am in the market for a new car.

Occasionally driving my girlfriend's 2008 Fiesta 1.6 automatic until they finally get the Mustang to Europe.... it's a long wait.
