So its official!!!! Finally made it there. Bought her mid January 2005 with 50,000 miles. 2.5 years later and at the 100K mark. Scary part is, I still have another 2.5 years of payments to make lol.

So I took her to the car wash. And snapped some pictures on this momentous occasion.

Now I just need to do some maintenance.

1. Timing Belt
2. Brake Fluid Flush
3. Power steering flush
4. New rotors and Pads (again)

Then I'll give her the detail she deserves. Then maybe a new coat of Sonic Blue Paint.

For the most part it is. Couple dings and scratches. The bigges thing that pisses me off is the clear coat over the years of driving has been eaten through by dead bug juice. Needs to get wet sanded then painted again

One of the guys on my old audi forum used to hit the speed of the miles he hit and took a pic. aka 100mph at 100k miles 101 and 101k and so on.

100K, good luck, focuses are pretty reliable from what I understand. And its pretty nice.

Charged SVTF · 07-28-2007, 04:14 PM

Thanks guys. Yea, so far, my car has treated me very well. Even with the FI, its been reliable. Just maintenance like brakes and so forth. See gang Foci arent "that" bad lol.

Good job! I'll be in the same boat as you with the payment thing.

I picked up my car in September of 05 and am currently sitting at 56k. Its gonna be worthless by the time its paid off. I guess that means you turn it into a track whore and buy another car.

Raven18940 · 07-28-2007, 06:02 PM

Well it's not a subaru, but I guess it's ok.

PS, I really like your car.

pinacup7 · 07-28-2007, 07:09 PM

damn that's crazy, Im surprised it hasn't blown up. Im still at 39k

doug · 07-28-2007, 09:09 PM

the worst thing is taking it to a car wash... paint swirls ftl.

Charged SVTF · 07-29-2007, 02:53 PM
