Hi friends! Here are my two enthusiast cars, a 2020 Toyota Supra 3.0 Premium, and a 2018 Ford Focus ST.

The Supra is wrapped (done myself) in Orafol Tangerine Dream. So far, mod-wise, it's lowered on Eibach pro springs, a VSRF downpipe, and I'm working right now on installing Maxton front lip, side skirts, and rear side splitters. It's not tuned yet but I plan on doing that in the near future!

The Focus has a lot more done, it's FBO, too much stuff to list really, but notably: Modified Roush exhaust & cold air intake, BC BR coilovers, Tarmac EVOs, TB performance front strut brace, GoFastBits DV+ diverter valve (the turbo flutter tho), Steeda rear swaybar and end links, solid shifter bushings & short shift plate, etc. Stratified tuned for E30, but still stock turbo. The wrap is 3M Caribbean Shimmer and was done by Proper Auto Styling here in Appleton, WI.

I hope this sparks more people to introduce themselves and their cars, and I hope this community starts growing!

Thanks! Tangerine Scream is easily the best stock color, good choice.

That's a really good question though. I work from home so I rarely need a reason to get out of the house, but I occasionally do for groceries, dinner, and/or coffee runs. The Supra is newer to me, so I have a tendency to take it out more (especially if the weather is nice), but I try to give the Focus some drive-time as well, and sometimes go on cruises just for fun, with either car.

The Focus is also my autocross car, which I've been trying to do a bit more frequently, and I plan to do some track days with the Supra, but not as often. Also zero plans for kids, so I'll never really need anything more practical for that, lol.

I still have things I want to do on the Focus too, mainly a bigger turbo and the torque gusset mod.
