Default What should I do?

Unfortunately over the past weeks my blue car has been subject to some eggings. I don't have any problems with anyone at school, I think its the fact that my color probably stands out. Anyways, my dads friend is selling his dark blue 2003 Svt Focus for 2 grand! So I was thinking about selling my car, buying the focus and doing some cool things to that. What do you guys think? All answers welcome biased or not.

That sucks to hear. I def would hate to be in those shoes. But who s to say they wouldn't egg the Focus. Those SVTs are fun though, and you can mod them too.

Sorry to hear about the egging. If you're thinking about getting something new, and you're comfortable with spending a couple grand, you might think about a fox body.
I've seen a lot of them for sale recently on facebook "mustang parts for sale" site. Many of them in Ohio. Not too many under $2k are driveable, but I've seen $4000 ones that look really nice. I don't know if you have any interest in a fox, but I know one thing, if you had one and wanted to upgrade it, there's thousands of parts out there to do it with (used ones for cheap). By the same token, if you're ok with a focus, that's cool too. At least it's in the ford family, and the svt's can be performance enhanced..... Just my 2 cents. good luck.

Thanks for looking out for me! I actually am looking at my Dad's Friends 89 Fox GT with 52k Original Miles! It's Automatic unfortunately but I cant pass it up because I think he's letting it go to me for around 3k!

Also would you trust buying a car that has had the motor ripped out by someone random? I'm not sure how I feel about that lol
