Thought it was something nice, but it wasn't...

Driving to PAA this morning, I was on 248 in PA at about 5:40am. I notice some projector HIDs in my rearview.

BMW? Audi? MB? s2000? TSX?

Nope.

IT WAS A FORD FOCUS!

and I think it was stock too 'cuz it was some middle age woman driving it.

So if your friends tell you that HIDs are only on luxury and high end cars, tell them about the ford focus.

No, the SVT doesn't have HID. The MACH was a special focus which had an upgraded stereo and some other cosmetic features like HID lights.

Although I have heard of an unmarked BMW around these parts so I might still have to watch out for the HID's

Maybe his was pimping some maxima HIDs. The funniest thing happened to me a few weeks ago. There was a new Maxima with no Headlight housings, and a few cars behind there was a Honda Mini Van pimping HIDs. Coincidence?
