SW OK FiST owner

As title says live in SW Oklahoma been lurking on the forum for a while. Finally bought a ST end of April. Found a 2017 with recaros and only 5k miles so scooped it up. I’ve been looking at these for a long time but finally pulled the trigger when my work car started taking a dump. It’s the first manual I’ve had in about 12 years. It feels good to row my own again. I was holding out for a GR rolla but current market is ridiculous so maybe down the line but this little car is fun. I don’t really care about straight line speed been upgrading the motor mounts first then adding power soon. I previously owned muscle cars but started out driving a manual hatchback as a kid so here I am back to my roots.

Welcome to the forum!
Motor mounts are definitely a good first upgrade. I would also recommend looking into a e30 tune when you decide to go for more power. (Also assuming you have access to e85) It really wakes the car up!
