Greetings everyone!
I thought it was about time I joined this fine group of ST enthusiasts. I acquired my little "fun machine" in March of this year and have followed this forum since day one. Obviously I'm a little slow at making on-line friends so let me tell a bit about myself...
I've been a fan of muscle cars for as long as I can remember having owned three Mustangs, a Firebird, and a souped up El Camino. I absolutely love having a lot of power under me and the fun that comes with harnessing all those horses on these crazy city streets. My last Mustang was a 2000 GT, SCT tuned, CAI, headers, catback, interior and exterior treatments, etc. To make a long story longer , a couple of years ago I got talked into a more 'fuel efficient' car and traded it for a 2012 Fiesta SE. I actually liked the ride and handling of the Fiesta but boy was it slow! I wasn't used to having to wait to get out in front of someone so I didn't get run over! I started reading everything I could find on this little car which of course led me read about the forthcoming US version of the ST. I wanted one bad and as luck would have it right at the time my lease was up on the SE my dealer had the newly acquired ST in stock. It was a no-brainer to trade up asap.
I ended up with a MO FiST, stock seats, sun roof, nav, Rado wheels/ red calipers. I immediatly got the windows tinted and dropped in my subs and amp. I've since added the AP with Stage One tune and a high flow air filter. From day one till now with a little over 4k miles I absolutely love this car! It handles better than anything else I've owned and the torque is addictive. It may not be a muscle car but man is it fun to drive.
Sorry for the long post but I had some catching up to do . I've learned so much about the FiST from this fine community (and admittedly a few others on the 'net) and I look forward to joining in on all the fun.
