Nice  and welcome to the greatest BMW forum on the planet
Sure, show and tell the Focus. Also, do you have any plans with the Bimmer as far as mods?

Nice ride, any mods done?
Pictures of your focus would be awesome, I always liked hatchbacks. Well I guess i'm assuming that a ZX3 is also hatchback, or is it just the ZX5?
