Hey everyone, I'm in the market for a new FiST for my wife's daily driver (though I will probably drive it as often as possible)! I've never been much of a Ford guy, even though my dad and father-in-law both are repeat buyers. I'm really impressed with these cars though, and I'm looking forward to learning about the ins and outs of the hot hatch world. I'm coming from the V8 GM world (daily drive 2004 GTO), so this is a big change for me!
The car my wife and I are hoping to pick up is 2018 in Shadow Black, Molten Orange Recaro seats, Ebony Wheel option, w/moonroof. So far, there aren't any available, so we've been shopping dealers on price to order from the factory. Some of them are gung-ho and others seem iffy about being able to order a 2018 at this point. We found a '17 that has most of the options we are after, except it has Nav and no moonroof. It's been sitting on the dealer's lot for 260+ days, but they still wanted to play hardball on the pricing (came in less than $600 below ordering an '18, which is laughable).
Hopefully I will be able to dive in soon, I'm looking forward to participating in the community! You guys have already helped a bunch with some of the pricing threads!
