What it is... it is a 2011 fiesta ses that has been completely shell swapped with a 2017 ST with 32k miles. Everything got swapped, all ST body work, front and rear suspension, fuel lines, gas tank, even the brake lines, carpet and headliner. Only thing left from the ses is the shell and passenger side doors. It was then wrapped in Matte Purple and set on TurboMac wheels in Nitto tires.
Whats this mean to you the buyer..... Well you get more or less a full 2017 FiST but with the insurance cost of a 2011 SES. This makes it cheap for you to own.... just dont wreck it unless your insurance company knows about the swap and thats insured too. It has the Colorado Engine swap forums for emissions that do transfer with car. no issues with car at all other then the typical fiesta things like squeeks.
Car is in Greeley Colorado.
Not sure exactly what its worth as the swap makes it hard to value, but non salvage clean title STs with low miles are getting between 14-and 16k right now so i would be ok with taking 10k on this. Parting ways with car cause I just got to many vehicles and need room for my new FoRS. Got a 2011 F150 FX4 5.0 and a 2006 Gixxer 1000, and a 92 E450 ambulance thats been retitled and converted to RV, for sale as well.
The swap and its story. https://www.fiestastforum.com/threa...inished-wrap-finished-buttoning-up-now.33343/

Clean title low mileage ST’s are definitely not going for 14. My 2016 w/ 35k miles brought 11.
I thought it was crazy too but here we are with these listed. Then there is the guy on ebay at 21k. So idk.... 2026. Focus RS listed at 50k and a few right at 43k. the cars here are rust free so maybe thats why the prices are so differnt. i did look up the market up around you and yeah they are much cheaper up there in the rust belt. 1000013393.jpg

Just read through your build thread. What is the current state of tune/mods? did you ever get the rear alignment sorted? Love the work and the car looks amazing in the photos!

Just the Cobb. So stock. Car seems to have settled out.... or i just got used to how it feels and wasnt used to it, so rear was left as it was. Got all the badges and emblems on it.

My car was definitely rust free too. It lived in Texas and was kept off the roads in PA winter the two years I had it. What they’re listed for and what they sell for are probably two different worlds too. Good luck tho.

I would like to point out that's dealer pricing, private sellers are in the 7-11k... Yours being a swap and not factory I would put that on the lower end, and no offense to you or your skills I wouldn't trust anybody without significant record keeping and a respected shop performing the work
