Ordered Ford Fiesta MK8 ST Ultimate

[SPhilli911]

Nice! I've said it before and I will keep saying it, but I wish we (in the U.S.) got the Mk8 Fiesta ST. It would have been an instant buy for me.

It's a nice little car indeed, first need to do the brake-in period , so no more than 4000rpm till I reach 1500km (932 miles)

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious shit!!!

I still can’t get over the argument Ford did to get rid of their Focus and Fiesta ST :

*company chooses not to make cars for the us*

“cAr SaLeS aRe LoWeR iN tHe UsA, hErE bUy ThIs BoRiNg SuV, dId YoU sEe iT hAs ThE sAmE, FaNcY, sPoRt BrAnDiNg LiKe YoUr CaR?”

all you’re guaranteeing is the Market you DID have for people who want cars that can actually corner and autocross with are going to go for different brands in the future...

^^^Sadly, they truly do NOT care one effing shit, since it is ALWAYS about the bottom line, and maximal profits, and only appealing to the overwhelming majority of the lemming masses.

This is an age old problem with Detroit in general. They always think they know exactly what the public wants. AKA were all lemmings. and they have always let the bean counters rule the day.
Its not amazing that brands like Toyota, Nissan , Honda, Suburu can manage to cover a broader spectrum of the general public , its sad . Its probably the worst with Ford ( and it was the thing Mullaly set out to change of course that was all undone after he left) followed closely by GM and then Chrysler.

Yeah man, just a little interesting our Australian brothers get to keep the fun while we have to opt for VW, Honda, Subaru, and Toyota (whenever they get their stuff together with this supposed GR Hatch).

not mad about the options that remain, just a little sad blue oval isn’t included, especially seeing what our European brothers get
