I find it very a funny to see guys driving imports wondering what I'm driving since the only thing they see is the ST badge in the rear.[lovest]

IT allowed me to get rid of my Snowmobiles and have more ready cash for parts :)


No problem with my Snow tires infact today i had a chance to honk at a BMW driver that was driving like one.. he didn't like that i scooted around him and drove away in the winter wonderland today :)



as you can see when go in deep make sure you keep the lower grill clear every now and then as it allows the intercooler air flow .. :)

Same, I still have the Fiesta badge, which gets more attention from regular Fiesta drivers. You know all they are thinking is "hmmm, I wonder what the difference is?" or "We shoulda got that one". And the surprise on others faces when you give it a bean or two (as opposed to giving it the beans). No one expects that from that little car.

And the driving experience, it is the Most fun I have had in my short driving life.

I love having a low key car, im sure all the ricer's just think I put a bumper, wing, and badges on a Fiesta.

Same with how they thought I put a hood scoop on my Mazdaspeed3, when its just a big bird catcher for dat interfooler!

another sleeper type eh :) Glad to meet ya :) I always liked a clean "factory" looking car.. not to say i don't applaud the effort of those that bling them out some of it isn't my cup of tea...

I thought long and hard about taking the Fiesta Badge off the back then i figured "NO I want them to know they been had by a FIESTA" LOL

I just grin when I can drop my FiST into third and bomb into a 90degree turn with little to no wheel spin then peg the gas. I've yet been able to push this thing to the limit and I will enjoy every single waking minute as I get there!

The recaro seats... oh god those seats are awesome.

Makes you feel like like the car hugs you everytime you get in.

The driving is amazing, but it wouldnt be the same without the seats.

The look on co-workers faces when I tell them I sold my BMW 5 series and bought the ST. You what? [unbelieveable]

The fun to drive quotient is way up there. This car is like having a 4 wheel enclosed motorcycle...the acceleration and handling are that good. And you can hoon around in relative obscurity...under the radar.

People next to you at stop lights not knowing what the hell you have, thinking its just a "pimped out" fiesta and trying to race you in their econobox or riced our car. The truth is in the boost, once they hear spool or BOV between shifts then go back to their terrible existence, saddened and lonely.

Soon I will take it out on some nice twisty roads and see how she does.

Passing an unmarked police car, on a two-lane road, at 115mph. Getting pulled over, complemented on the car, then let go! ;)

lol...I know! I think he was just as frustrated as I was. Following a school bus doing 60mph in a 75mph zone for the last 15 miles. An opening popped up, he was right behind the bus, pulled out to pass. I was 4 cars behind, saw there was plenty of clearance, jumped in behind him. Had to slow down, while he passed the bus. As soon as he got back into the lane, I floored it by him. When I pass a vehicle, I like to wrap out 4th gear, before I shift it into 6th, resume the cruise setting, and let her coast down on her own. When I checked my mirror to make sure I was clear to get back into the lane, I saw flashy lights. Was like, "oh shit oh shit oh shit!".
