No, Crash Standards are why you cannot have a 3-dr Fiesta ST in the USA, and why 3dr Fiesta ST in the EU is going away in a year or so - hence the sudden proliferation of 5-door fiesta rally cars. At least two of Ken Blocks are 5drs.

Crash standards are also why the recaro headrests are permanently set in a really…

As something close to a millenial, you know what finally got me to buy my first ever new car?
Ford making a product I wanted to buy and presenting it in an engaging way - EcoBoost challenge ride-n-drive sold me my Fiesta ST a few months later.

Disclaimer: I am 29.

fiesta st expert here. BlueBomber on all the forums.

its a response to some guy who was asking about brake fade which we told him was nonsense, many of us track the car in stock form and experience no fade.

crash standards. True story.

This is why I stopped playing skyrim. I tried playing it and got as far as making my character and going to town, and apparently I am not supposed to pick up objects on tables at the inn.
So then everyone started attacking me. And now every time I spawn the villagers haven't forgotten and I'm forced to kill all the…

as a fiesta st owner and someone who also mods a focus st profesionally this is accurate; the focus is more powerful and sophisticated but the fiesta is more tossable, nimble and fun. They are both great choices and you can get a focus st new for 20k now.

None to speak of but I am a very aggressive driver and just had my pads done at 14k miles.

For the record, my lady LOVES Top Gear, my best buddy's wife LOVES Top Gear and my female coworker, who is an active enthusiast and she and her husband both actively AND INDEPENDENTLY modify their cars - she LOVES Top Gear too...

Pretty sure there have been MANY women that LOVE Top Gear UK if my experience with three…

yeah... the romanticized idea of the american male bonding-over-wrenching experience was not something I share with my father, or my father-in-law for that matter. It seems a good number of Boomer males have NO FUCKING CLUE how a car operates, what its parts are... I've never worked on a classic Musclecar with my own…

If you say so... the people who are going to buy a VW already have a preference for it and what I've been seeing with many older guys who've been buying Fords want something fun but see that "oh hey, it gets decent mpg and I can still carry the kids"... it's only boy-racer-y if you opt for color matched recaros and…

the Fiero GT was a lot of fun with 130hp. Giving it 230 is a recipe for something akin to a shifter kart or motorcycle.

This is the perfect combo. 32mpg in this form, too. Nice price for a good body with the drivetrain swap already done and running.

oh ho ho, the bit about under 30 is especially rich because a really SURPRISING amount of older guys are buying the Fiesta STs... and man do they go hog wild with it. The wildest guy on the Forums is an old bearded guy with a really loud molten orange/molten orange FiST w/Boss-esque stripes...

Good number of folks are…

That's what I thought when i started seeing XK's of this gen going for 10k... like a decade ago.
I was like, NO WAY is depreciation that bad...

I have to wonder why this generation of XK is so cheap. That can't be good.

ST Octane Academy is MUCH more relevant than a perk you get with ... how many Nurburgring Edition LFAs did they make? They only made like 300 LFAs in the first place. And they've all long been sold.

Pretty hard to beat FREE RACING SCHOOL with a Ford Fiesta ST or Focus ST...

http://www.stoctaneacademy.com - yup, it's 100% complementary, but transportation to Tooele and Park City UT and lodging is up to you.

I highly recommend Miller Motorsports Park as a racing venue; the amenities for a racer, IMO, were pretty damn…

Pretty sure that the basic design of the Companion Cube (sans heart) is so primitive it would not surprise me that it is unrelated development that looks just like what we ID as a companion cube now.

Half the world is a warzone and planes fly over North Korea and other "war zones" daily.

At this altitude, there had not previously been a threat.
