I bought my 2019 FiST new in 2019 and I'm still running it 53,000 miles later. I've loaded it up with mods from the engine to the interior and I'm still in love with it. How many of you are original owners?

I'm an original owner of my 2016. I ordered it because I wanted it set up a certain way and it was delivered in August of that year. I have been fortunate enough to own some interesting cars, and this is probably my favorite car that I have ever had. I hope to keep it forever.
It's been quite trouble free, I've mainly had the common issues and have had to replace two HVAC actuators and the purge valve out of warranty. I did have to replace the Sync 3 screen system, which was the only less common thing I've had to replace,but fortunately that was under warranty. Other than that, it's just been routine maintenance. I mostly drive it for pleasure and it's only got 31,000 Mi on it.

Original owner of my 2016, ordered March 2016 and delivered October 2016.
Only 50,050 miles on it currently.
One of the old(er) owners at 70.

I wanted a 'club sport' version with no added weight/complexity/leak prone (or cost adding) extras, and with the all season Michelins on it, in Magnetic, so I had to order it, since ALL of the dealers around here only ordered fully loaded, black FiSTs for stock, exclusively.

I was on here trying to learn as much as I could about the car, it's potential problems, and most effective and functional mods, at least 8 months before I owned one.

I'd like to know just how many of the original, first (month) year of the existence of this site (charter?) members are still on here, and still active, and still owners of our beloved ride.

Proud single owner of a 2016 Tuxedo Black with 72k Miles with a list of mods and a Dizzy Tune. Gone through 2 kiddos in the back seat. I have genuinely beat on my car time and time again when my kids arn't in it and kept maintenance and oil changes frequent. Other than our notorious blend door actuators this car has been (knock on wood) bulletproof. I will drive this car until its totaled. Still brings a smile to my face when its time to play around. Not a single regret on having one.

Original owner 2014 Tuxedo black (no options), ordered July 2013, delivered September 2013. ~71k miles on the clock, and just popped the factory engine. It will live again as I have SP63 building and ~500hp capable long block. Most current mods in my signature, have had many other mods over the years. Car was basically flawless, even modded, until I got more experience and started picking up the pace on the track. Then I started breaking all the things, but that's just the nature of the beast. Fully intend on never getting rid of the car, so I'll do what I have to do to keep it alive.

Unlike you, I saw the first ever ST on the forecourt and decided to take a look. I took a test drive and decided I wanted one. Went inside, spoke to the COSTCO rep who gave me the best price, no haggling allowed and took the silver car because white was my first choice which they didn't have. Now I prefer silver to the white. Have never looked back! Will never sell!
