bobfather posted:It sounds like you drove an ST1 or ST2 - the full leather, non-color trimmed seats of the ST3 wouldn't have been interpreted as juvenile by any stretch of the imagination. What kind of tune did you pick up for your ST? I'm seriously considering picking one up and I'd like to see what options are out there.

triple clutcher posted:when is the Fiesta ST supposed to hit the US? I went down to a Ford dealership last month to I heard straight for a Ford employee's mouth that there were only 12 in the country as of last month. I never heard a concrete time frame, but the general consensus was "later this year or early next year." They're a bit small for me, but it's still a drat-fun little car.

If this sounds like what I think it is, I had to do a similar thing on my Mustang. Basically a spacer between the end washer/plate and the gas pedal on the cabin-side of the throttle cable. I rigged mine up with some hard plastic tubing and some zip ties. Took me all of 5 minutes and $.50 of materials. It probably raised the gas pedal up 1.5-2 inches.

echobucket posted:Probably going to look for a Fiesta ST this weekend. This will be my first hot hatch, so I'm pretty excited. Yeah, the Tangerine would be awesome on the Fiesta ST, but the orange they have available looks really nice in the sun.

I had the chance to beat on both a FoST and a FiST and yeah, the clutch is such a departure from my Mustang that it really threw me for a loop. Once I realized that the travel was about a third of what I'm used to, I just figured out that I could use it like a button and really enjoyed myself. I'm sure I'll pick up an ST2 Focus eventually.

Night Danger Moose posted:Naw, I meant this: The Tangerine Scream is a fantastic color. However, the Molten Orange on the FiST looks absolutely incredible in the sunlight. I wish they made both colors available for both cars.

GutBomb posted:I decided on the molten orange FiST over the MS3 after another test drive. Ordered a set of winter tires from tire rack. Hope it doesn't snow this week. Hell yeah. I love that color and wish it was available on the Focus.

Atmus posted:If it's just an issue of the gas peddle being lower than the brake, you can get a spacer that raises the whole assembly and takes like 2 minutes to install. I did this to my Mustang with a piece of tubing and a hose clamp.
