New Fiesta ST owner, not a new ST owner

[TimmyTango]

Hey guys!

I recently traded my 2016 Ford Focus ST1 in magnetic metallic for a 2016 Ford Fiesta ST molten orange with all the amenities I was looking for.

I owned my Focus for 5 years, I loved that car and did a few modsbut after driving my friends 2014 Fiesta ST through his various stages of mods he did, I fell in love with this platform!

I currently have no mods but am extremely excited to get started, first on the block is a tint, followed by motor mount (probably will do AWR or Whoosh), traction bar, and an accessport with a goal to go e30 either Panda or JSTuned.

dude I freaking love it. I will say I love everything about the Recaros but my most favorite thing about them is the heated seats from our Midwest winter we get here! Even stock this thing is a blast, but I am definitely looking to playing the modding game with her! Tint is a MUST have for aesthetic and privacy, I am getting mine done this first week of ownership too lol

Welcome! It is truly a unique platform in NA, and the aftermarket lets you do whatever you want.

Congrats man. And a '16 molten orange too... not many of them out there from what I've gathered. I'm jealous. Did you get the orange recaros or the greys?

I'm in the market for a FiST with Recaros under $16k. I found 14 red, 11 black, 3 white, 2 dark gray, 2 light gray, 2 orange and 1 blue across US.

I classified "race red" and "spicy orange" as "orange" and "molten orange" as "red". Not sure if it is right.

thats backwards Race Red is red , Orange Spice is really Orange Molten Orange is over towards the Red spectrum but is classified as Orange

I did a quick research and there were a number of different colors for the FiST in US:

2014 & 2015: Green Envy & Molten Orange ($0); Performance Blue, Race Red, Tuxedo Black, Ingot Silver & Oxford White (+$595)
2016: Shadow Black, Magnetic Metallic & Kona Blue ($0); White Platinum & Molten Orange (+595)
2017 & 2018: Shadow Black & Magnetic Metallic ($0); White Platinum & Orange Spice (+595)

So the available colors where green, black, red, blue, gray, white and orange.

I WISH they were orange Recaros but they’re gray. I’m just thankful to have found one within a reasonable price range. Prior owner kept fairly good care of her, but there are a few cosmetic things (mostly touch up) that I am looking to fix apart from the mods I want to do too.

Funny thing is I was leaning more toward Whoosh anyway, I had the AWR for my Focus and it was pretty solid, but it’s hard to not to go for a company like Whoosh, I’m also considering their FMIC

Ah, still a nice ride, man. At least you got one of the fun colors for our little party cars.
