I agree but if your patient, you can find a deal. I just picked up a 17 Fiesta ST with Nav, Recaros, and sunroof (all options) for just over 20k. There are still really good news cars that are reasonable if you’re willing to wait for rebates and later model years (tend to be better too because they work out all the…

I get what you’re saying, but when done right, with the right exterior color, tan can be ok. I just hate the all black german leather blah boxes that everyone lusts over.

FIESTA ST.... GET EM WHILE THEY LAST

I always kinda liked it. I wonder what they had to do to pass MOT.

and honestly... you don’t need to get so desperately upset over something so minuscule. I just thought it was hilarious that the only thing stopping someone from buying a civic si was that it didn’t have an automatic. You can certainly disagree but man... such animosity lol   

lmao whatever you say... automatics suck... it truly takes the joy out of driving. I know you’re old and don’t want to shift anymore and want a civic si with an auto but hey... enjoy your boring life.

and before you crucify me, yes I think this price is a bit steep... but in a couple years this will be a deal.  

4G63.... get used to this price because good examples of these cars are just going to continue to climb.

Despite how much you wish manuals would go away because you can’t drive one daily, doesn’t mean it will. It may be outdated technology but at a certain price point, that isn’t true. Sorry but manuals are just more fun. Any true petrol head would agree. Its not always about 0-60 times and lateral g’s, its about how it…

most enthusiast would disagree with you. sometimes its not all about how fast something is, its how it feels. Also, I’m glad you brought up those other manufacturers.... have you seen the price tags? And this is a sporty economy car. You put a dual-clutch in that and suddenly the price jumps up 5-8 grand. And it can’t…

A little piece of me dies when rx-7's receive LS-swaps. I know its the go to bro move, and I can understand the reasoning behind it but it still hurts my soul. I love rotary engine for all its flaws and fury. I just feel like swapping an LS, like everyone else....is just using a cheat code in a video game. Is it…

I also really love the weird styling. It must have looked so space-age in 1985 considering what it was positioned with at showrooms. Despite keeping with the sharp lines, boxy styling that was prevalent in that time period, it still stands out. Amazing alternative to the other mini-vans out there. And dare I say, the…

I drove one of these for a month while my DSM was having the head rebuilt, and i have to say... I liked it. The seats were comfortable, the center console was well placed, and since i was a year removed from high school, all the rear seats were replaced by a memory foam mattress. ALOT of fun was had in the back of…

To everyone complaining about the “looks”.... will you just shut up and drive it.... I promise you won’t care. I bet when most of you see this in person, you might have a different opinion also.

Does everyone now understand why the Type-R’s bumper looks the way it does?

You need to read up on how different things were back then. For the time that was pretty good power/liter. As others pointed out, it was a straight configuration, not a “v”

The 4G63 took the torch from the FJ20 and said, “We’ll take it from here ol’ girl.... we’ll take it from here.”

“IF the Si had an optional automatic transmission...”

When I entered fatherhood, I retired the DSM and bought a ‘07 Fit Sport manual. Great car except for 2 things... no power, no 6th gear. Thank god for this car or else i wouldn’t have bought my ‘17 Fiesta ST. Same weight, double the power, and a 6th gear. Same rough size (fit is more “accommodating”) but everything…

Thank god this hasn’t reached the Fiesta ST’s. Does make me nervous about Ford’s build quality but I will take comfort if Ford takes care of the Ford Performance community.
