Nice upgrade

scrming · 05-07-2014, 09:37 AM

I really liked my Focus ST... was a fun little car... was a blast to drive.... but there is something about RWD you just can't beat!

(ok, well maybe if the Focus ST had been AWD... LOL)

When I was reading all the "my previous car was a" threads, I thought it would be fun and interesting to make this one. Not dissing on Camaros.

The list of cars is true, and were turned over in the order they are shown.
The switch to Stangs was made because I've always been a Ford performance guy, but got out of the scene for a while. I made a return to pony cars with the '10 Camaro, and from there my interest in Stangs were rekindled.
I'd still probably have the Focus ST, but electrical problems appeared from the git go. Dealer tried to to fix it but to no avail (since then Ford issued a TSB regarding the wiring harness).

I really loved my 2010 Camaro... still have a big poster size print of it hanging in my living room... my thing is i don't keep my cars very long... usually less than 2 years... only thing i hated with the Camaro was the stupid Bosch ECU...

My 9 year old daughter, while she loves the convertible, keeps reminding me how much she misses the Camaro... LOL

You've got to be taking a killing with the 1 year depreciation on these vehicles.

I'm not a fan of the new Mustang, but I'll give it credit for its performance value.
