New to Ford from CT

[SPhilli911]

Hey everyone, I recently placed an order for a new Fiesta ST, Performance Blue color with the Smoke Storm Recaros as the only option. I've been without a fun car for about a year now after selling my 2004 STI to ease the pressure of paying for school and I need my fix again. The FiST fits my needs and is relatively cheap, so it seemed to be the best pick, and after months of lurking on this forum I pulled the trigger. I am looking forward to getting the car and to interact with all you fellow enthusiasts on this forum!

Also the Fiesta ST seemed like a good car to wear my WRC plate.

nice. I also came from a subie (11 WRX) to my first Ford and haven't looked back. You are not alone in CT, though it seems that way sometimes.

Stupid question - but were you on Civic forums awhile back? User name looks familiar for some reason and I've been trying to place it for awhile.

I was on 8thCivic and am currently on 9thCivic (just for the Tail of the Dragon meets they have)

Yeah that's where I know your name from. Had a few friends go to the Tail a few years back with the 8th group.

Thanks everyone.

Yeah I have not seen a single Fiesta ST in CT yet. Hell, I haven't seen one anywhere they seem quite rare.

I've had mine in CT since September, I've seen one silver ST in my area but that's all

Wish I lived closer, I'd check that out and actually get to see the car I ordered.

Honestly won't be surprised if the first FiST I see is my own.

Welcome, I am also moving from Subaru (2012 wrx) and going to Ford. Love the Fiesta ST for all the reasons. I am also in CT so I will probably see ya around.

I can be found at auto-x clubs: FCSCC (Stratford), NNJR (Meadowlands), MSNE (Meadowlands), and NYR (Nassau Coliseum)

No sir, I was a huge poster on the Subaru forums

3 months and 10 days later, it has arrived. It's at the dealer now, I just need to wait until 2PM to pick it up. I am beyond excited.

I will post up some pictures once I finally have it!
