Greetings from Rhode Island.. 2019 FiST

[CigarGuitar]

Hey Everyone,

Just picked up a bone stock 2019 FiST with 22k on the clock. Ended up buying from a Porsche dealership(weird) and took delivery from them in my town via enclosed trailer. It was pretty awesome. I was looking at Eco Mustangs and Fiestas. I ended up with this as it gives me something that is a little more fun going normal speeds. Have a bunch of small parts coming to me over the next couple days.(short shifter, performance air filter, rear mount, shift knob, accelerator pedal raiser) Then we will see what else to upgrade. I am almost 50 at this point, so things will be slightly subdued and will appear more stock even after being modified. No Recaro seats(I know everyone asks) because my frame does not fit them well. Its been enjoyable so far.

Scott

jeebus d1 you just sitting there waiting for new people lol so quick

hi new dude!

I'm close to your age range, and have migrated back to stock exhaust and mostly stealth mods. Tune, big front IC, some hard pipes, sometimes an intake ( turbo noise is better than exhaust noise!), stock exhaust with the resonator removed (it burbles!). Great car for beating on while not getting into legal trouble

Welcome to the forum!
I’m impressed that you found that new of a car! Enjoy it because there’s nothing like it being made here anymore.

Welcome! I'm next door in CT

On pedal spacers- I tried a 3d printed one for a while but it was still not great to heel-toe. The Garageline spacer lets you move the pedal closer to the brake which allows me to get fancy

I was in CT for quite a bit yesterday! Had my wifes Escape at Putnam FOrd for a bit then golfed at Connecticut National. My town actually borders MA and CT. I bought a spacer already so we will see how it does. Short shift and turn signals going in tomorrow.

NICE!!! I am a realtor and my work has been keeping me up in MA more than RI right now. Even all the way out to Palmer/Springfield.

I see your car is from Lamoureux Ford. My In laws live one town over from there.

The grey is growing on me. Just put the short shifter in and performance air filter.
