Hey everyone! Been wanting an ST for some time now ever since a buddy I was stationed with bought a brand new 2015 Focus ST. Was dead set on buying a Focus, and the Ford dealer I work at had one 2017 for $22k with 17k miles. Unfortunately that got sold before I could even make a decision. Noticed we had a 2018 Fiesta with the same Shadow Black with gray wheels - with 3500 miles on it! They let me have it for the weekend and instantly fell in love with it - even my dad loves it (and he's the average "older cars are better" kinda guy, but a Ford guy none the less). There was a couple minor problems thanks to the prior owner - the wiring for a sub was left in the back (our recoditioning techs are kinda lazy) which caused a few pinched wires in the driver door harness making the left turn signal intermittant and the driver window not going down fully. That all got fixed/removed.
So after some paperwork, I now own an almost new Fiesta ST! Got it for $18,600 (stickered $21k), plus free oil changes for life (so happy about that too)! Almost bought a F-150 with the huge rebates they were putting on 2018's, but all I could afford would be a 3.3. A couple questions I have though:
1. Has anyone had success in adding navigation? We can do it since it is all factory parts, but it gets very expensive.
2. General durability?
3. Must-do furture upgrades? Nothing crazy!
4. Where can I find a set of stock black wheels?
May take it up the mountain today just to drive it some. So refreshing to drive a reliable car for once that is mine (coming from a '66 Stang and '85 RX-7), and it's not a base model!
