To me it has nothing to do with whether I'm a v8 guy or not. I mean it's a matter of hey, it's a focus. It looks like a 16yo girls first car and it always will. Then they spend over 25k putting a v8 in it. It's not that fast really, and it still looks like a 16yo girls first car. A focus is a focus is a focus. That's my point.

He did great work and it's cool that he likes it. He should keep it though, cuz it's still a piss yellow focus. Maybe he can give it to his daughter

Pastel yellow is for homos... Ford really screwed up when they did away w/ chrome yellow and went to zinc yellow. At least they came back strong for a bit w/ Screamin' Yellow.

Thats exactly why I said that. If it's all over your avatar/sig, why do you need to anounce it...don't get hostile.

I could have said.... "Maybe he wants a girls car with a V8 because he doesn't want everyone to think he is compensating for a small dick by driving some over-the-top sports car" but I didn't because it's a bad stereo-type and I'm not here to say angry things to/about people like " you don't sound very smart". Now, "you get over it" , what ever "it" is that makes you so pissed off.

Depends on the year... earlier ones are chrome yellow... the later ones are screamin'. But... if not cared for chrome yellow fades quickly and looks close to zinc yellow.

Lol. I'm not pissed off at all, just find it funny. I'm on a car forum, so naturally my avatar is of my car. I like to drag race and once again I'm on a car forum, so naturally my car and best e.t. is in my sig. I'm sorry if that bothers you a little bit. It's ok though. Just trying to figure out why you are so sad.

Cheer up. I have a four cylinder too, maybe I'll put that as my avatar one day...maybe.

Anyway, back on topic.

Sarcasim can easily be taken as hostility or anger. I apologize if you didn't mean anything by saying " you don't sound smart" or " you are sad ", they sound like cheap shots to me.
It doesn't bother me that it's in your sig. I understand that your proud of your 'vette and that you are a "purist" of sorts, it just sounded like you were trying to put it out there a little strong. It's all over your sig/avatar, yet you still feel the need to say....."and continue driving my corvette that was designed for a v8." instead of something more like.
" I would only drive a car designed for a V8, not just any old car with a V8 installed "
But we should get back on topic like you said, I just wanted to clear that up.

"Playingwithguns" : What would be the fun in that? Everybody and their brother has a fox body!!

Now, it may be a fast sleeper, but nevertheless, look up and re-read.

Has nothing to do with V8 "haters". If it were a Corsica, Taurus, or Duster I would still say the same. He has talent, and knows how to nicely mod a car.
