Hey guys, I figured I would move from my intro thread over to hear as I have started actually doing stuff to the car. I mostly post on Instagram as 99.9999% of my photos are taken with my phone it is easier. However, i will try to provide relevant information and updates to this thread as well.
A little background about me. I have car OCD and between my wife and I we have owned over 30 cars (I am 34) and have never had a loyalty to a specific brand. I started out with a 76 Olds cutlass with a 350 in it which was a great first car but it wasn't until I bought my first Honda that I was hooked into the car life. I owned a few Honda's, then a whole slew of VW's from a MK2 Jetta 16v to a MK6 TDI, to our current Touareg. When my wife and I had our second kid I decided I needed to get a four door and so I went to trade my MK6 TDI in for a 4 door GTI. However, I stopped at a Ford dealer on the way as I heard they had received the first two Focus ST's in the country. I ended up leaving with a 2013 Performance Blue ST2, was one of the first handful sold in Colorado. That car started my Ford obsession, I strongly believe no other manufacturer is as in tune with the gear head crowd currently than Ford is. Anyway, long story short I sold the FoST and bought a Fiat Abarth...kept that for a whopping 3 months and bought a F31 (3 series wagon). The wagon was a great car but never fit me, it was too richy fancy and was only available in an automatic.
That brings us to current and my 2016 Molten Orange Fiesta ST. She's pretty base, no Recaro's and no sunroof or nav. I actually wanted it that way, however the more I live with the base seats the more I want to dump them.
