How much did it go for?

I'm not sure selling it at auction was the best move....

The Auction wasn't the best move but I had a lot of dead beats ofering and pulling out cause they didn't have the finances ready. I got 24K. I think I did great considering I'm seing great cars go really cheap on Ebay right now. I'm looking into purchasing another one right now.

Copper is an awesome color! THANKS! About suspension, I'm looking into it. I was also looking for a supercharger but unfortunatly they don't make one for my year and engine size. For those who live in the Valley, I don't know if you guys heard of Earls Automotive. They do great work on Ford vehicles and cool as hell. They were the ones who hooked me up with the charger on my stang.

If you guys know of anything I can do for more power on the Focus, please let me know.

Well I'd change the suspension to something high quality first if I were you. Highlight the strongpoint of the car, then work into the weak point. I love my KW Variant 1 coilovers. Other good choices are H&R coilovers or quality dampner/spring combos.
After that you can either stay NA and with a bunch of boltons get around 160whp, which is plenty fun. OR call Focussport and drop a few grand to get a ton of power for a car so small.
There are no superchargers out there for us 05+ guys. I have a 2.3 with just bolt ons, no cams or anything plus a great clutch/flywheel made by Exedy and a limited slip and it is a riot to drive. Oh and a 4.06 final drive ratio from Ford Racing.

Either way its fun and kind of expensive so it all depends on how fast you want to go!

the lights stay up year round cause you never know when Santa might bring another ford before December.

Thanks guys, but the Roush was sold last November . I regred it now but what can I do. Another Mustang is on its way. Really looking at those GT500's...
