Finally got one, in West Virginia.

[GoHerdGreg]

Hello, all--
After two years of researching FiSTs...I recently picked up a black 2016 model that belonged to a good friend of mine. I never knew she had one, until she pulled up one day and I said, "Hoo, boy," out loud.

I bought the ST from her about 7 weeks later.

I come from a long history of turbocharged, manual-transmission goodness, the B13 Sentra SE-R world (I bought mine new in '93 and had it for 20 years, many autocross/dragstrip/track days and good memories).
The Fiesta ST is a bona fide, modern-day reincarnation of the B13 Sentra SE-R, in my book. They share many common traits. In some ways, the FiST is better.

Thank you for the forum and the knowledge base therein. I look forward to hopefully contributing as I dig in to this wonderful little box of turbocharged goodnees, over the years.

Welcome!

I had a 1991 Sentra SE-R, never should have sold it. The feeling I got when I test drove my fiesta ST was the same and I have told many people just like you said I think this is the reincarnation of that car.

This one I will not sell!

Enjoy the car and again welcome to the forum!!!

Coming from PA...the first area I'd hit is Canaan Valley in the NE corner of WV. My favorite area of them all.
If you're coming down toward Charleston on I-79 from PA...well, I-79 in an of itself is a pretty fun road. Over 100 miles of left-right-left-right at interstate speeds.

If you want to go off the beaten path, then a drive down the WV Turnpike to Beckley is fantastic, and then you can head over toward New River Gorge area. Lots of great two-lane roads in that area.
Enjoy.

Hey Matt-
I posted a few on FB prior to buying it. I really need a good weather day to shoot some good photos of the ST.
It is an absolute hoot, and really, really, really a modern day B13 SE-R.

Hey, George! It does look like some of us have found the modern-day SE-R in the FiST.
It’s like 1993 all over again.

Hey George! Hah I wonder how many more old SE-R list members or SR20 forum folks are hiding on here.

My jaw just dropped reading fellow B13 guys [emoji1360] have had 5 in the past. First car was b13 non-ser but made it look like a ser. This is the last one I had before I found out I was having a family. Now driving my FiST since June
