I've actually thought before that between the two, I think I'd rather have the Fiesta.

[MZRSPEED]

This is bad ass IMO, I've been eyeballing these for a few months. Be nice to see how well it holds up, good thing is, it doesn't need the power we do to run those times since it's so much lighter.

And it's still not cutting the 60's it should, throw a true drag suspension setup on that car, some weight reduction and that thing would come close to touching 11's.

i drove a brand new one as a rental car, not the ST but the next model down, and have to admit that i was impressed by how solid it felt. damn thing had heated seats and a backup camera.

[thatguy0o0]

That's pretty neat. It always makes me smile to see a snobby WRX get beat by anything especially a Fiesta!

[doctavus]

Yeah I would take a Fiesta ST anyday over the Fuckus ST.

After driving both at the limit, I prefer the Focus still. Maybe if the Fiesta had more power like this, it would change my mind.

Team Oneil is using them in the Rally America series, but won't tell me if they use a mechanic diff, and how they turn off the electronic nannies.

[SpeedThrizzle]

Did you find the fiesta ST to be to slow?

[JgamB]

Haha that's awesome. It redefines pocket rocket!

And no need to put skinnies on the back, they're factory equipped

[SpeedThrizzle]

I've thought about driving one just to see what the hype is all about

Not any slower than a TC Mini or Abarth. It competes at a high level with those cars, but lacks the Mini's handling, and the great sound of the Abarth.

[SpeedThrizzle]

If you go on the fiesta st forums there are quite a few ms3 converts or people with them thinking about switching and I just can't fathom as to why...they look a little better then a focus IMO but they still look like a jelly bean to me

[Neverlift]

Good riddance to them then.

[LOL MS3]

fiesta ST is just not practical at all. Not a lot of space in, and honestly, they feel a lot cheaper to me than my Focus. I used to have a Fiesta as a Demo, and it honestly felt like i was going to break the thing. But this is pretty impressive.....Still would rather have a proper hatch like a Focus or Speed3.

[MZRSPEED]

This car is what a real sport compact hatch should be, IMO. Small, light weight, and a boosted 4cyl making decent power, what more could you ask for?

The ms3/FocusST are both over weight for "compact" cars.

[SpeedThrizzle]

It's one of the smallest cars I've ever sat in other then a miata and an s2k

GTFO, you belong in Europe with all the other shnitzel cars.

Never call my lady overweight.

Cause 'Merica

[snailD]

i agree with MZR. i would love to have one of these fiesta st's. i would also take it over the focus but im not getting rid of my MS3

[SpeedThrizzle]

I would drive a fiesta ST if it wasn't for the ms3. I would never drive a focus ST though. If you have the fiesta just plan on a storage bin on a roof rack for trips. Car handles on rails...stock power feel similar to an ITR

I'm actually considering a fuckus st.

[Kyle-609]

I would love to drive one of these. My good friend that just picked up a Focus ST said that the Focus felt tighter when test driving both. But the fun part about the Fiesta ST was that it almost felt like a go kart. Everything felt so small to him but like a good small, that had power behind it.

No

Better then a fuckus with fake LSD and sound tube into your cabin.

[The_Shocker]

The car really is a lot of fun to toss around, it's definitely not as torquey as the speed3 is but a blast nonetheless.
