Hi Guys and Gals,

Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Tom and I picked up a 2015 OW Fiesta ST from Ken Grody Ford today in Southern California. I am new to Fords and Ecoboost cars, but not new to the car/tuning scene. I have had 3 Subarus (still have a 13 SWP Hatch) and I must say the bang for you buck with this car is incredible. Everything about the Fiesta (power, handling, tech, styling etc) is very impressive and I look forward to personalizing this car and making it even better!

I have a little bit of an addiction to modifying things if you couldn't tell by my Subaru lol. Ive already ordered the following for the Fiesta:

-Cobb White/Red Shift Knob
-Cobb RMM
-Oxford White Bumper Plugs
-ST Rear Cargo Mat
-Lamin-X Yellow Fog Overlays
-Tint Appointment Set for Tuesday (all 9 windows)

Here are a few crappy snaps from today...

Welcome and congrats. Love the white and both are great looking cars! You have a similar build as I had on my 2009 WRX except mine was blue and a sedan. Those cars are a blast. Any plans with the ST?

Thanks! The Subarus definitely are fun cars. After being in a Subaru for so long though the handling of the ST stock kinda knocked my socks off. I "plan" to keep the ST pretty simple mild bolt ons and keep it a somewhat modest DD. I also had similar plans for the Suabru and that didn't exactly turn out that way.

Yeah, that's usually how it goes. Definitely an addicting and expensive hobby, lol. I had my Subaru when I lived in Chanhassen, MN. The car was an absolute blast in the snow.

Those cars definitely shine in the adverse weather conditions!

Good looking car you've got there. Mine will be here later this week and is almost an exact clone. OW with the regular color rims. I also already have the yellow fog overlays, just no car to put them on yet. lol. Enjoy your FiST!

Thanks! They definitely have a pretty good inventory. Also more 15s then anyone and more cars that aren't completely loaded with all options (which I wanted).

I will definitely check out the FB Group!
