First of all, I want to Thank hfd1622, Bigredszx3, Dan719, name99, danielfuller for their excelent comments about describing your ZX3.<br><br>Because I need for more inputs, I am sending this questions again for the rest of the Club members.<br><br>1.- How do you describe your ZX3?<br><br>2.- What are the 3 most things you like about your ZX3 and the 3 worse things you don't like?<br><br>3.- If you were to grade your vehicle, what score would you assign to your ZX3 (Being 10 the best and 0 the worst)?<br><br>Thank you very much for your help.

1. Sporty little car<br><br>2. Like: <br>A.)Unique Euro stying, B.)real upgrades like al wheels, tires, beefy engine - its not just like a standard model with a "sport" sticker put on the side. C.) Economical price - good joy factor for the buck. <br><br>Dislike: A.)Needs better acceleration off the line. B.)& C.) = not sure yet, only had mine a week.<br><br>3. Still in the honeymoon stage with it, but would probably say an 8 right now. <br><br>Overall, I think Ford came up with a real winner here. Going to send my daughter off to college in it probably in 3 yrs, but she may have to fight me for it first...

ok, here goes...<br><br>My ZX3 is a sport compact car, rainforest green, stock everything [right now].<br><br>Three favorite things:<br>(1) Comfortable interior with controls at my fingertips... VERY ergonomic<br><br>(2) Speed... great acceleration [in comparison to a 1987 Ford Mustang convertible with a 4-cyl. engine in it]<br><br>(3) Ride / Handling... the ride is nice... you know the bumps exist, but they don't jar your fillings loose like a lot of little cars... kinda like a car you'd expect to be much bigger than the Focus; as for the handling, in a Motor Trend [or Car & Driver, can't remember which] 600 foot road-cone slalom test, the Focus beat the new Bentley and Jaguar at 62.6 MPH =:c)<br>Oh, and RIDE HEIGHT is great... people's normal headlights used to hurt my eyes 'cause of the low stance of my Mustang... NO MORE!!! :c)<br><br>Three worst things:<br><br>(1) still don't know the corners well [haven't (and WON'T) hit anything, just getting used to the car]<br><br>(2) no blue tint in the windshield [but that leaves me open to putting regular tint in its place, something that is much darker :c)<br><br>(3) it's a cop magnet... explanation:<br>TWO days after getting my car, before I even had a chance to show my friends, I was coming back to work from getting lunch, and a local city cop SIDE-SWIPED my brand new car! The total bill has yet to be determined, since it happened almost two weeks ago and the car just got in the shop wednesday [two days ago]. Hence, it's a cop magnet... :c(<br><br>Grading: 9<br>-&gt; why: could use a little more power in first gear [second gear is a powerhouse, like a lot of fords I've driven], but overall is a great car that has lots of options for a [relatively] low price tag.

1. Euro Styled sporty compact car with more bang for your buck than anything else on the road.<br><br>2.<br>a. Fun to Drive<br>b. Cute & Unique (for the moment)<br>c. Price<br><br>d. Gas Mileage Sucks<br>e. Cup Holder Placement is retarded<br>f. some little things that have gone wrong (too many for my taste)<br><br>3. 7
