Btw that's the gripe I have about the passenger seat. The driver seat lowers to the right height (for me) but the passenger seat is not height adjustable and feels a little too high.

If the focus didnt have such a negitive vibe around it for being an entry level econobox. I'd buy the Focus ST. Focus ST is on the same playing field as a GTI, and I would say it would keep up with an R32. Doesnt fall into the 300HP range of evo or STi but I believe it would give them a run for the money.
All of my ford clients got an ugly urine yellow Focus ST. It does have recaro seats, and it moves. Me and the sales manager took one out while I was there a few days ago. Very impressed with this little car. If I lived in the city, this would be my hatchback rocket. |

Pressing Torrie for more details on the bolt ons used. 313/355 is pretty nice, especially if it's only with some basics.
